The latest rage among kitchen professionals and serious home cooks, Asian knives combine light weight and maneuverability with a seriously sharp edge. This two-piece set contains the two knives essential to modern Asian-style cooking. The three-inch paring knife is ideal for small-scale tasks like peeling and trimming fruits and vegetables, while the seven-inch santoku knife combines characteristics of a Western chef’s knife and a Chinese cleaver. Great for chopping and dicing herbs or vegetables, the broad, straight blade also produces razor-thin and precise slices of sashimi, or any other fish, meat, or poultry. Oval-shaped indentations on each side reduce friction for a cleaner cut and help release food so that it falls away from the blade.

Durable, well-made, and moderate in price, Chicago Cutlery’s Insignia line is ideal for cooks who are looking to step up to higher-performing cutlery but don’t want to break the bank for a set of famous-name German knives. Made from heavy-duty high-carbon stainless steel for rust and stain resistance, they feature forged blades for a leap in quality above cheaper stamped knives. Chicago’s exclusive Taper Grind edge is tapered to be razor-sharp and cuts with precision; these knives will need to be re-sharpened regularly, but they take an edge beautifully and with regular maintenance can stay out-of-the-box sharp for years. The full tang extends from one end of the knife to the other for a superbly-balanced feel and added strength, while the heavy-duty forged bolster enhances safety. Ergonomically-designed polymer handles are durable and non-porous, so they’re impervious to water and bacteria. Triple-compression stainless steel rivets secure the handle to the blade for increased stability. Chicago Cutlery covers their knives with a lifetime guarantee; they recommend hand-washing and drying for best results. --Mary Park
