Victorinox Cutlery 4-Inch utility Knife, White Polypropylene Han Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For many of my cooking tasks, I find I need a sort of "in between" knife.I love the Victorinox chef's knife, but often the task at hand doesn't require a knife that big.I love the paring knives, too, but often am chopping or slicing, so the paring knife is not quite enough.The 4-inch utility knife is my Goldilocks knife -- just right!

The first time I used it, I was chopping sweet bell peppers, something that's often frustrating; if the skins are just a little bit tough, many knives don't deal with them well.I end up having to rearrange the slices I've cut with the inside facing up to chop through them readily, a hassle and a time-waster.Not so with this knife!Its super-sharp blade sliced through cleanly and quickly with almost no effort.It was also a handy size for cleaning and cutting up the peppers to prepare them for chopping.From there, I moved on to the onions, then to the finely chopped garlic (I was making chili), and it performed equally well with all.The handle is a little small and light, but fits comfortably in my hand, and in combination with the thin blade, it makes the knife very maneuverable.

At first I wasn't sure I liked the white color, but now I appreciate it because it makes the knife stand out among all the black handles in my knife block, which is just what I want, since it's become the first one I reach for almost every time.For the money, you really can't beat this knife.Get it along with the Victorinox chef's knife and you just might find that instead of a drawer full of so-so knives, you can become a 2-knife cook.
