A great knife makes all the difference in cooking. Chopping and dicing becomes pure fun with a sharp knife that feels like an extension of your hand. Cutting through carrots like butter, knife beating a staccato on the cutting board, saves time and makes you feel like a kitchen rockstar.
I’ve been playing with some new Chicago Cutlery knives from the DesignPro Dual Material line for the last few weeks, knives that are as sharp as they are pretty. I love that they have a thumb and finger grip spot for a more comfortable hold. I feel more in control when I’m chopping carrots and potatoes, and can work faster.
The finger grip on these knives help me remember how to hold my knife correctly.
One lucky reader will also get to try these knives out as well as Chicago Cutlery has offered me an 8″ chef’s knife and a 3 1/4″ paring knife to give away on my blog. The price point is surprisingly low for knives of this quality: the total value of these two knives is $54.98 ($34.99 for the chef’s knife and $19.99 for the paring knife).

My favorite kitchen tool would have to be my cast iron griddle….I just dont know what I would do without my cast iron stuff! The second favorite would have to be my grater!!!
Thanks for the give away~
My number one kitchen tool is my chef’s knife. I actaually have 3 of them that I kind of rotate through. Right now the favorite is the Schmidt Brothers santoku.
I could not live without a meat thermometer. Well , maybe I could but I wouldn’t want to. I hate overcooked chicken.

For me, my kitchen shear… they help with cutting the cilantro to the jalapeno to opening the cheese packet! I love them!
sorry, commented in the FB thingy above, but my answer would be my kitchenaid stand mixer!

Hey Melissa, good to see you here! Now fully in sippy cup mode and think of you often as I try different ones with Sophie. So far… Nuby sport top wins. And it helps her with teething too.
Right now I couldn’t live without my Vitamix. It’s worth every ridiculous penny I paid for it. It makes my morning smoothie, our hummus, ice cream, soup, dips, and sauces. I actually thought about taking in vacation with us, but didn’t. It’s replaced my blender, my Food Processor, my ice cream maker in one fell swoop. It hasn’t replaced my KitchenAid mixer though…but it could.
Oh Susan, this is a dangerous, dangerous comment. It has induced serious Vitamix coveting on my part. I would love to make easy batches of ice cream, soup, and smoothies. Added to my Christmas list.
My favorite kitchen tool has to be my food processor. I use it all the time!
