Let’s talk about kitchen knives 🔪 #shorts

Growing up we had 2 types of knives, the small knife and the big knife. One for cutting and one for chopping lol

Thank you, Chef Andy, I have had all of those knives for about 50 years now, and they’re still working beautifully! You make me feel like a “real” chef — but I’m just a regular mom!

a good knife will last a lifetime. I am 50 and still use my Henkel knife set every day I got as a culinary school student as a teenager.

Could you do a video on ingredients that you keep and how to store them? A lot of the recipes you do look delicious but call for small amounts of not so common ingredients. Just curious if you have specific ways to store and make the best use of such ingredients. Thank you for all you do!

A good cooks knife is absolutely essential imo. I had a cheap one for a while until I almost lost my thumb. Get a good quality cooks knife and make sure you keep it sharp.

Yes! Victorinox serrated knives FTW!
My family have all used them as our primary kitchen knives for 10+ years. They're not expensive, super comfortable to use, and they stay sharp for at least 3 or 4 years.

As a chef myself, the Victorinox paring knife is a must. Not only very handy but very cheap. Which is important because they ALWAYS go missing.

I have 3 victorinox knives. 2 paring and 1 serrated (looks like a butter knife). They stay sharp for ages and are super cheap and versatile.

I recently went to a local forge and made my own chefs knife. Was a ton of fun

[AnthonyWalsh-dx]

I really like the way you explain everything you do. It has helped me become a better home cook 👍

[Nick-xcfy]

I like how you gave sensible suggestions with a clear reason. Unlike some chefs that say you need a £1000 Damascus knife

Over the years I have collected all of these and more and scrimped elsewhere to purchase the best quality I could afford. Was in Tennessee and they have an enormous knife store. It was a toy store for anyone that is into knives and swords. It was actually overwhelming and I visited the store several times before narrowing down my choices. I picked up knives as gifts for my friends that fish and hunt. They had anything anyone could ever wish for. If they don't have it, it doesn't exist. Saving up for my next trip later this year! Oh and I live in the west coast and they shipped all my stuff for free! The thought of having a small suitcase full of knives run through TSA would surely have me pulled aside. Highly recommend that if one has the opportunity to shop at a place like this, go in in and take a look around.

I remember our little Victorinox knife, those things are perfect for tomatoes, cuts them like butter

Super helpful video! I own all 5 style knives but most essential ones for me are: chef/cooks knife (typically around 8 in), paring, and serrated bread knife. It’s nice to have the other ones but not absolutely essential.

I also find myself using a petty/utility knife quite often which is around 6 in and is small enough to get into cracks/crevices without needing a filet/boning knife.

Before my MS I used to be a chef. I miss it dearly

Just watched you other video about all your knives. I was on the line for 27 hrs for commis to head . Victorinox pastry knife was always my go to (the Swede killer) if you've had one and didn't like it fair enough but I found it a game changer just a big Vic tomato knife. Great for removing finger tops at the heel...

[evieinfinite]

the small paring knives are invincible, I swear.

[ClownWarpaint]

Starts a video people ask me about my knives every day, so im gonna run you through....
That's why i love this channel!

Andy, i watch a lot of youtube shorts and seeing so many fake people gets to me, but you, you are genuine and it restores my faith in youtube shorts
