Gadget of the Week

The item this week isn't a gadget, as much as it is an essential: knives.

Alright, I know, what kind of gadget is this. Well, this is one the most, if not the most, important gadget you will own in your kitchen. As you can see, we have quite the collection here. At last count, there was 40 total knives. I own a set of Hinkle knives, a couple of Wusthof knives, and several other assorted brands.

The most obvious need of a knife is cutting, but with so many speciality knives out today, they provide many different needs in your kitchen

There are cutting, paring, peeling, fillet and chopping knives just to mention a few. The most important thing I ever learned was always keep a knife sharpened. The old tale about a dull knife is true. They are the very ones you will hurt and cut yourself with. A good investment to go along with your knife set is a good knife sharpener. Then, you will always have a sharp knife to do whatever task you need.
