this is...my favorite kitchen tool
Well, whoops. It's been some week. I was supposed to post this on Sunday, and I even had my post planned, but I never got to it. So I'll just give you the gist: this was a rough one! I love everything in my kitchen, I swear. First I ruled out all gadgets since a "tool", to me, is a non-powered item. And I finally decided that my one cannot-live-without item is my wusthof santoku knife. Honestly, I love it so much more than my chef's knife. I use it for practically everything. You can't beat it on vegetables! Although...I doubt it cuts bread too well...so don't ask me to give up the rest of my knives!

Lovely things people have had to say:
I used to think a chef's knife was the be-all and end-all as well, but then I bought a pink-handled santoku at Bed Bath & etc. to support the Komen Foundation and now I can't live without it. I hardly touch my chef's knife any more. I even bought another pink santoku for my Mom because it fits her smaller hand better (and all she had were old utility knives anyway; sometimes you just need something a tiny bit larger than a utility knife).

Wustof rocks. We love our knives.. tho the smallest of the chef's knives seems to see the most action.
