Look for an email from me soon!
I would NEVER consider myself a gourmet chef by any means — I make simple meals with simple ingredients… but everything usually tastes good (at least that’s what Dave tells me!) However, even though I don’t cook gourmet meals, it’s still nice to work with gourmet cooking tools — especially if they are designed specifically with the home chef in mind.
Today’s Weekend Giveaway features a gorgeous 6″ Wüsthof Classic Chopper Knife… and let me tell you, I feel like a gourmet chef when I’m using it!
Unlike standard utility knives, Wüsthof’s new Classic 6″ Utility Chopper features a wide blade and reversed scalloped edge that cuts easily without shredding or tearing. The scalloped blade reduce blade “stickiness” when slicing though starchy vegetables and the wide blade design makes it easy to scoop up chopped ingredients from the cutting board and dump them into pans or bowls.
The Chopper is ideal for everyday food prep, in everyday homes, for everyday chefs like us!
That is the theme of Wüsthof’s new microsite. They are “defining the Edgë” and revolutionizing the tools available for home chefs.
If you’re looking for a great knife to add to your collection, you’ll definitely want to enter my giveaway below. And if you’re looking for an entire new set of knives, head on over to WusthofEdge.com to see their selection of beautiful knives… you’ll probably start drooling!

Wow, what a beautiful knife. I could really get cooking with that.
Kristin says
I would love a new fruit and veggie knife!
Melissa says
I like to go to our local farmers market and stock up on tons of fruit and veggies. I think this knife would make the chore of cutting up all that produce a lot easier!

I’d chop everything! I love chopping, actually and I could use some beautiful new knives! 🙂
Amanda says
I’d use it to slice up Ingredients for jambalaya. It always takes a while with my knives to cut up the peppers, onions, celery, and whatever else I choose to add.
muriel says

I’d use this Wusthof Chopper every day when chopping veggies for the grill! Already a huge fan of Wusthof — I have the 7″ santoku, 3.5″ paring knife, and 8″ bread knife.

Since this knife is too small for killing zombies it would used for slicing, dicing, chopping and mincing vegetables. The knife is nice and wide so it would become my new garlic smasher.

I would use it to chop veggies, chopping herbs.
Dorcas Byler says
My daughter and I would both use it a lot to chop veggies, etc. She is 14 years old and cooks lots of our meals. I love to cook as well, and we entertain a lot.
Allison says
I’d use it for most prep, although I think veggies would get chopped the most with this knife.
Karen says
I like Simple Organized living on fb!
Karen says
I would use it on sweet potatoes. Is it just me or are those things strangely difficult to cut?!
Kelliinkc says
That’s a great sized knife. I would probably use it for most things– slicing, thru small melons, chopping veggies…… I tend to only really use 2-3 of the same knives all the time anyway. I could use a good sharp one!

Ayisha says
I would love this knife for chopping veggies, and fruit. And cutting up chicken breasts.
Alicia says
We’ve been wanting to start using Sunday nights to prepare meals for the whole week, and I’d definitely use this knife for chopping lots of salad ingredients!!
Jen says
I love my Wusthof knives! I would probably save the knife and give it to my husband for Father’s day since he loves to cook too!
