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 have not one decent knife in my kitchen. It always seems like there is something needing to be purchased and the kives always get put on the back burner. So, I would use this knife for everything while cooking. It looks beautiful.

Love this knife! I’m not a gourmet cook either, but good knives make a big difference. I would use this lovely scalloped edge baby to cut many vegetables for sauces, stews, stir fry – whatever I could!

I recently spent time in a friend’s kitchen helping her prepare a meal, and found she didn’t have one decent knife in her drawer. It’s hard slicing a carrot with a paring knife! If I win this knife, I will put a bow on it and gift it to her.

Catherine R. says
Well I’m an avid at home cook, and I only have some cheap knifes that are good but they sometimes can’t even cut through an onion! I would have to make a fresh vegetable fried rice!! 🙂 Chop all the vegetables instead of using frozen ones!
Holly F. says
I’ve “liked” you for a while now. 🙂
Terri says
I would use the chopper to chop up all of those veggies I’m trying to keep up with eating on a daily basis (New Years Resolution) :).
Holly F. says
Just found out I have food allergies – gluten AND dairy free, so I have chopped a LOT of fruits and veggies lately. The knife I have now just isn’t cutting it! (Pun intended.) 🙂
Laurie says

Sounds like this knife would be great for chopping lots of things. I’m trying to eat healthier, so would probably do veggies, fruits, and maybe some nuts…for a treat!
Jenny C. says
I’d love to have it to chop veggies especially for summer salads!
Amazonite says
Oooh! I lust after that knife! I would use it to chop vegetables, cut meat, slice bread – everything! I think it looks like it would be great to go through semi-frozen chicken or beef to make stir-fry slices.
Lisa in Houston says
I would totally chop up every kind of vegetable known to man. I want this knife!!

Spring has come to Portland and the Farmers Markets are going again.Yay! We walked to one last week and they have the most wonderful fresh, organic vegetables. Using a Wusthoff knife will make it even more enjoyable!

Oh, that looks fabulous! I have to have a sharp knife when cutting meat, so I would definitely use it for cutting up chicken.

Chopping Veggies!
Heather says
I used my aunt’s Wüsthof knife over Thanksgiving last year and immediately had “knife envy.” Maybe I had just never used a good knife before. I would love to win one and start my own collection.
