Chef's Blade
Sharpen your skills
There’s a reason why we named our site Chef’s Blade—because the knife is the single most important tool in the kitchen. This guide, prepared for us by the Culinary Institute of America, is designed to help you navigate the ins-and-outs of choosing a knife, taking care of it, and keeping it sharp.

I feel the most important is you have to have a passion for what you do, and the quality of your knives will show for this.

I believe while the knife is an important, if not the most important tool. The imagination, quick wit and as stated before the heart are also necessities as well. For what is a blade without the skill and the heart to guide it.-Ciao
