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!

I recently started eating a much more vegetarian diet and I chop a LOT of veggies – lettuce, tomatoes, celery, cucumbers, and bell peppers are probably the most chopped at our house. I just got new cutting boards. A new knife would be great to go with them. 🙂
Shelly says
This would be nice, my knife barely cuts butter.
Sandra says
We have been making a move toward a more healthy diet and prepping everything from scratch. No canned goods, no pre-packaged foods. For that reason it is even more important to have good and efficient tools. I would likely use this knife to chop up all the fruits and veggies we will likely be eating in the upcoming months.

I have such a mixed bag of knives in my kitchen. It would be great to have one of real quality. I’m trying to eat more veggies, so I’d probably use it mostly for that. Thanks for the opportunity!

OHHH! I have just been shopping for a new all-around knife! This looks fabulous! I think I would use it for EVERYTHING but bread would be particularly great!
Patty says
This could be used for so much ~ bread, onions, etc….would be nice to have.
Bronwyn says
These look awesome! I bet the serrated/scalloped edge would be great for tomatoes (my sure-fire test for knives!) Amazing how sharp knives make one feel like a kitchen pro. :o)

I think it’d be great for chopping up herbs. And it would make quick work of the ingredients for gazpacho and salsa!
Jessie says
I would use the chopper to prepare meals for my soon-to-be-hubby. I’m getting married next weekend!
Sue says
I would use it for dicing celery and onions for so many dishes, but it would also be great for chopping up vegetables for summer gazpacho!
Kat says
I would use it to cut up the jalapenos I am growing so I can freeze them and have spicy food all year round!

I love cooking, and I love Wusthof Classic knives – so this would see a ton of action!! I’m thinking potatoes for sure, possibly even bread when I don’t feel like pulling out my larger bread knife (bagels, muffins, etc.)

My husband is always using the knife when I want it!

I have only had the opportunity to use this knife at a very prestigous restaurant… I would use it to quicken the amount of time it takes to prep meals/dinners with all the knife work. I am a firm believer in making food pretty and this knife would help me dearly! 🙂
