What's your favorite knife?

[TexasRose]

I prefer the chef's knife. It feels better in my hand than anything else.

In general I find that people's preference on knives has a lot to do with just how it feels and how it moves.

My favorites are my utility knives. I suppose you'd classify them as paring knives, but.... they were marked utility. 4 for $2 at dollar general. woohooo. I paid $100 for my knife set and my dollar general knives are the only ones that wont squoosh a tomato or loaf of bread. So sad....

I love my chef's knife. I have so many knives and this is about the only one I use. I guess I just wasted my money becasue half the knives I have never get used.

I just got 2 Calphalon santoku knives (5" & 7") and I don't know how I lived without them.

Also, the paring knives from Pampered Chef - they're the best $1 knives ever!

I just use whatever's handy, I don't know the types of knives. I'm not very particular with brands.

I have a boning knife that I inherited from my ex husbands grandmother. It is the best knife that I have ever used. I also have a bread knife that I only use for bread.

The knife is great for carving stipes in the skin of citrus fruits. It is also ideal for decorating cucumbers and other soft-skinned vegetables. Pare off thin strips before slicing the fruit or vegetable, to make an attractive edge.
