Types of Specialty Knives

Even if you love your trusty chef’s knife, there are certain cutting tasks that call for a specific type of knife for the best results. A classic utility knife can be just as handy, with its unique shape forming a combination of a paring knife and a chef’s knife. There’s also the popular prep knife, which is great for activities like peeling, chopping, slicing and more. Perhaps you’d get a lot of use out of a Kiritsuke, a type of Japanese knife that’s perfectly designed for thinly slicing fish, vegetables and fruit. With so many great options from which to choose, it’s easy to find some knives you’ll be excited to try for yourself..
