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 would use it to prepare healthier meals, especially vegetables. I would be motivated to entertain more and showcase my treats, and brag the use of the knife’s abilities.
Shari~Rain into Rainbows says
Definitely for chopping fresh veggies. I truly wish I’d have learned the proper way to chop in my younger years, and I was just thinking the other day that it’s about time I finally learn.

As we eat lots of fresh fruit and veggies I would use it to cut these items. I would definitely have to ban my husband from taking it out to his workroom to cut odd things for projects he may be working on! Love your site!

My husband spent his teen years in Germany and was familiar with this brand of knives. He says it is a really, really good brand. 🙂
Since this is a chopping knife, I’d use it for chopping vegetables. I’ve read that serrated knives work especially well on tomatoes and fruits with skins.
Joanne says
I would use it to replace all of my DULL knives in the kitchen. Mostly, I use them on a cutting board during prep for meals.

I would use it for cutting all the veggies for chicken pot pie, squash casserole, and lots more!

I always hand chop all of my vegetables so I would use it for everything, and I’d like to know if starchy veggies really don’t stick to it while cutting…that would be a great plus!
Justina says
This would be great for cutting cooked chicken. I can never seem to get that clean-cut look with the knives I have.

This might inspire me to do some actual cooking!

I need this knife. My very old chef’s knife handle is wearing out. I’d use it for all my slicing and chopping. Can you imagine how chopping celery, slicing onions, etc. would be a pleasure with this wonderful knife?
