Cook With Chef's Knives

Make meal prep a breeze with one of these black chef's knives from Williams Sonoma. Originally designed to slice and disjoint large cuts of beef, the chef's knife has evolved into a general-purpose kitchen knife. The long, broad blade can be used to:

• Slice a handful of herbs quickly or mince a clove of garlic.
• Chop and dice fruits, vegetables and nuts.
• Cut and slice meat, as well as separate meats at the joint.
• Use to transfer ingredients from a cutting board to a pot or pan.

What Types of Chef's Knives Are Available?

Invest in a high-quality knife that will last you for years to come. The typical blade of a chef's knife measures eight inches in length and about one and a half inches in width. Different brands offer slight variations in size and shape.

• To get the classic version with the standard blade and handle length, try the Wüsthof Classic Chef's Knife or Zwilling J.A. Henckels Professional "S" Chef's Knife.
• For faster, more precise chopping try the Shun Fuji 6" Chef's Knife. Shorter blades offer more control and precision. Wüsthof and Zwilling J.A. Henckels also offer shorter blade versions of their classic designs.
• To prepare larger amounts of food, consider a knife with a wider blade like the Shun Kaji Western Chef's Knife and Zwilling J.A. Henckels Pro Wide Chef's Knife.
