As a professional cook, I was taught that my knives were the most important tool I would ever hold. Chefs love and revere their knives, with some spending entire paychecks on their blades. For work, I have a knife roll — a case with all the tools and knives I need to cook on the hot line every day. My knives are my most prized possessions: I spend hours cleaning and sharpening them, and I make sure the blades are protected in special plastic covers before rolling them up in my padded case.

This Tool Does Not Actually Sharpen Your Knife. Here’s What a Steel Really DoesSkills
If you watch food competition shows, you’ll probably see a competitor or chef expertly running their knives over that steel tool pictured above. In fact, you might even own one of those steels if you have a big knife set or knife block. So do you know what that tool is? It sharpens knives, right?

He writes:I received a butcher block and some decent knives for Christmas, and it’s nice to have a full fresh set with all the amenities. However, I keep finding that I really only end up using the large chef’s knife, the short paring knife, and the bread knife. I’ve missed some crucial aspect of my education, I think: what are the rest of these for?
