Knife Skills —

a kitchen guide to using the right knife the right way

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!


Nonknife, nonmotorized sharp kitchen tools

Many kitchen tools aren’t knives but are still very sharp. These can be just as valuable, but unlike knives, are often just task-specific. Over time, as you cook more, you’ll buy these as you need them.

No matter how sharp a knife is, it can never cut its handle.	Chinese proverb

The village, which has got a whetstone, does not blunt the knife.	Tswana proverb

Margaret Witter Fuller

Genius will live and thrive without training, but it does not the less reward the watering pot and pruning knife.

Buddha
