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.


Cutting by the tongue is different from cutting by the knife.	Kikuyu proverb

Cutting by the tongue is different from cutting by the knife.


Long ere you cut Falkland-wood with a Pen-knife.	Spanish proverb

Wounds from the knife are healed, but not those from the tongue.	Vietnamese proverb

Wounds from the knife are healed, but not those from the tongue.

Gordon Graham

Decision is a sharp knife that cuts or to do anything, never to turn back or to stop until the thing intended was clean and straight; indecision, a dull one that hacks and tears and leaves ragged edges behind it.

Buddha

The tongue like a sharp knife... Kills without drawing blood.
