In sharp focus
A good knife goes a long way to getting meal prep done pronto. Chop to it with these superior tools of the trade.
Chef's knives
Also known as a cook’s knife, this is a multipurpose blade which can tackle all sorts of general food prep tasks, including chopping, slicing and dicing.
Utility knives
With either a serrated or a smooth edge, this multi talented knife excels in a variety of tasks, such as slicing fruits and vegetables, cutting sandwiches and other medium sized items too small for a chef’s knife and too large for a paring knife.
Bread knives
Featuring a serrated edge, a bread knife is designed for slicing through hard bread crusts while preserving the soft interior and is also useful for soft vegetables like tomatoes.
Santoku knives
From Japanese origins, a Santoku performs well at slicing, dicing and mincing. It is compact, lighter and slightly easier to handle than the average chef’s knife.
Paring knives
Small in size, the paring knife is easy to manoeuvre, making it ideal for peeling, seeding or cutting fruits and some smaller vegetables.
Cleavers
A cleaver is best suited to heavy duty chopping and is made tough to cut through meat and bone.
