Description

It comes in cute packaging that is not only safe and easy to open but also provides instructions on how to hold the knife and how to use the entire blade like a pro. In terms of weight, Western-style Japanese knives also tend to be lighter and more fragile, making them an inappropriate choice for heavy-duty tasks, like hacking away at bones and such. The mark however first appears engraved on the Silver Tablet of Cutlers, held in the Thiers town archives, dated 7th June 1813.

Nicole (she/her) is the director of the Good Housekeeping Institute's Kitchen Appliances and Innovation Lab, where she has overseen content and testing related to kitchen and cooking appliances, tools and gear since 2019. This knife has a razor sharp, cutting edge and it has a high quality hardwood handle which is secured with brass rivets. Type: German or Western knives are great for heavy-duty tasks like chopping and breaking down a chicken, while Japanese knives are well suited to more delicate and precise tasks like cleanly slicing cucumbers. A half-bolster or bolsterless knife is more blade-heavy, whereas a full bolster throws more weight to the handle.To test the chef's knives, I examined each knife for flaws in the build quality, weighed them, took note of their specs, checked their out-of-the-box edge sharpness, and put them through a series of basic and common cooking tasks. Never put any sharp blade in the dishwasher, since it’s not good for the edge to bump up against other things, such as glassware and ceramic (materials that are harder than the steel). A beautiful gift for any foodie or professional, our knives stand out in compact, minimalist packaging.

A sharp knife requires less effort and pressure on your part, which makes slicing safer, easier, more stable and less tiring. What we didn't like: It has a full bolster, which means that a thicker portion of metal runs from the handle down to the heel of the blade. What we liked: This chef's knife from Mercer, a North American producer that specializes in German-style kitchen knives, did well in all the tests. Its blade shape strikes the perfect middle ground between the two styles—curved just enough for rocking but still straight enough for push-pull choppers.The knives I tested represent some of the most common and well-known brands available in the United States, but there are many other brands worth checking out, particularly if Japanese knives are of interest to you. This name - Sabatier - quickly became a byword for quality, and was adopted by many local knife makers. Given that Misen is still a new brand, this likely speaks to some quality-control issues that need to be sorted out with its manufacturer. Compared with the other forged German knives we tested, this one’s thinner blade cut more smoothly through all of the veggies we chopped.
