What Are the Different Types of Chef Knives
The distinctions between chef knives will be found in style, metal, shape, and size. There’s European chef knives, including the German Wusthof knife, that has a broader belly, making it favored for cooks who prefer the rocking technique. On the other end are the asian knives, like the Shun knife, that exhibit a straighter edge made from harder steel that responds better to the push-cutting technique.
What Is the Best Material for a Chef Knife
The best material for a chef knife is cutlery-grade stainless steel with an iron alloy. However, professional chef knives can also be found in carbon steel, a stainless-carbon combo or ceramic. Professional chefs typically prefer stainless steel because of its low maintenance and resistance to corrosion, the likes of which can taint food with a metallic flavor.
