Ready to go into the kitchen and start preparing to either begin collecting your assortment of cutlery or adding to it you will find this set contains the most necessary and useful knives. A great gift, this set provides a cook with enough versatility to accomplish most kitchen jobs. The chef's knife, with its broad blade and curved cutting edge for rocking through a chopping task, chops, minces, slices, and dices. The utility knife slices, cuts, and chops; its 6-inch blade is large enough to trim a chuck roast or subdue a head of lettuce. The paring knife cuts, peels, and cleans fruits and vegetables. Henckels' Gourmet line is a less expensive cutlery line featuring knives without bolsters and handles that are narrower and shallower than those of its premier lines--perfect for people with small hands. While this set is dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended |
