There are two things in my kitchen that have saved my sanity over the last couple of years...my knives, and my cutting boards. Okay...there is the liquor cabinet; but, that is best left secret.
There is just something about the rhythmic chop, chop, chopping that is music to my ears; not to mention my stomach. These knives are of various sizes, depending on the job at hand. My favorite is a medium sized knife that I use when cutting meat, potatoes, carrots...things of that nature. One of the things that I have noticed, though, is that I have developed pain in the index knuckle of my right hand. it seems that age is beginning to creep in on me, and decided to gift me with arthritis.
I am pleased to say that I have found some relief. Thanks to my Kyocera ceramic knife, I am able to tackle these jobs with less pain. It is lighter than my metal knives and keeps that sharp edge longer. It does not rust, in case I do not get to washing and drying it immediately. I have to be sure to use proper hand form when cutting, because it can do some damage if i am careless.
I would like to endorse these wonderful kitchen tools. If you like to cook from scratch, you would be doing yourself a favor by purchasing at least one.
Now, if could only find a painless way of opening my gin bottles, i would have it made.
