Best Kitchen Knives

If you ask any professional chef which is the most important cooking tool, the answer will undoubtedly be the knife. Knives are being used since the early days of man starting with rock and bone knives.

A knife consists of a blade and a handle. Each blade has a tip, back, cutting edge and bolster. The handle may be wood, plastic or metal. In all cases a handle must fit the hand of the individual.
There is a wide range of knives: chef's knife, boning, paring, turning, filleting, carving, bread, decoration, tomato, cake, salmon slicer, cleaver, just to name a few.
