Just one kitchen knife

[johngalt]

6" utility? 8" chef? 10" chef? Paring? Cleaver? Slicer? Machete?

If you could have just one kitchen knife, which could do it all?

My Wusthof six-inch utility. But I sure use others a lot, inc. Victorinox sandwich and paring models.

My Old Hickory butcher knife. That's the knife in my picture.

Nafzger Forge

No question in my mind.....

8.5 inch custom made chef knife.......made by Ben Noffsinger (Principle and Bladesmith at Nafzger Forge).

I own at least ten Chef’s knives.

There’s one word for my Nafzger Forge knife.......”Awesome!”

This is the one I use the most.
It’s an old GI knife, here it is just after I pickled it.

Chef knife for sure. Does most things you need. Other knives are great but can't beat a chef's knife for versatility. Maybe that's why it's called a "chef's' knife.

*My* most used kitchen knife is a Chinese vegetable cleaver (from Japan), with a very thin blade ~8" long and just under 4" wide. Does a nice ring if you rap the side of the blade with a knuckle. Had it for years and not even sure where it came from. Wife won't touch it because "it's too sharp".

Knife scope

I prefer a scoped knife so I can see the look in their eyes up close.

With many from which to choose, a 4 1/2" utility knife from a house sale, of all places..... Turned out to be pretty good stainless steel and incredibly useful.
