If you want to invest a little more in some higher quality kitchen tools, especially knives, I recommend Cutco.
Cutco products are great quality, and though I’m sure there are fancier knives out there, Cutco is the only company I know that have a FOREVER GUARANTEE! Which means, if you have a Cutco knife, Cutco will sharpen or replace it forever. Not just the knife’s “lifetime,” or yours either… they actually mean forever!
These are the go-to knifes I use the most: the “Petit Chef” and the “Trimmer”. They even travel with us when we are house sitting!
My Rep, Neil Conroy, is great, and will give you a Chaotic Kitchens discount – up to 25% off, which is not bad at all!
