This site will give you the confidence to choose and use the knives and other nonelectric sharp tools in your kitchen. It’s also a reference site that you can use as you improve your skills and acquire the tools that will make you a better cook!
I have one simple rule for caring for knives: if you treat them well, they’ll treat you well. And by treating you well, that means that they’ll last for many years. My primary knives are over 20 years old, and should be going strong for many more years. You can get the same mileage out of yours by paying attention to how you wash, store, and use your knives.
A bad knife cuts one’s finger instead of the stick.
No matter how sharp it is, a knife will never cut it’s own handle.
Wounds from the knife are healed, but not those from the tongue.
A sharp knife cuts the quickest and hurts the least.
Surgeons must be very careful. When they take the knife!, underneath their fine incisions, stirs the Culprit — Life!
