- The short blade is ideal for peeling fruits and vegetables. A small blade gives maximum control, therefore, the cleaning process with such a knife is safe for the cook.
- A wide blade is necessary for cutting products on the board. The height of the blade does not allow the hand to hit the surface of the cutting board. You can buy a Japanese or classic universal chef's knife.
- A thin blade makes it possible to cut the product into attractive slices. The thinner the knife, the thinner the piece.
- A thick knife is necessary for rough work, when it is necessary not only to cut the meat, but to cut the bone, tendon. With such a tool, it becomes easier to process cartilage, cut into dense vegetables, such as an artichoke.
- The serrated edge is designed for any food with a hard surface and soft interior. This design is mandatory for bread, it is suitable for tomatoes, citrus fruits, as well as for cakes and pastries.
