What Is a Chef’s Knife?
The chef’s knife is considered to be one of the most essential kitchen knives that any cook can have in their kitchen cutlery arsenal. In fact, it’s the first knife featured in our guide to the must-have knives for home chefs. In the culinary world, the chef’s knife is the workhorse of the kitchen. A chef’s knife is often between 6 and 8 inches long and features a sloping curve on the blade. This type of design encourages an easy rocking motion when cutting. You can use the versatile, multi-purpose chef knife for all kinds of tasks, from chopping larger quantities of herbs and mincing garlic to slicing larger cuts of meat. Generally, this kitchen knife features a wide blade, which helps with transferring ingredients from a cutting board to a bowl, pot or pan.
