Knife set

A chef with a high-end set of knives is akin to a painter with a master palate; both will produce masterful results based on the quality of their tools. An effective chef will have a knife set to cut through all the different food-shapes and textures found in the common kitchen,

For example, the J.A. Henckels International Everedge 13-Piece knife includes:
• 8-inch chef's
• 5-inch tomato
• 8-inch bread
• 6-inch utility
• 6-inch boning
• 5-inch steak knives

A knife set will often come in a block made of plastic or hardwood that protects the integrity of the blades and promotes the aesthetic of a culinary kitchen. A block also promotes knife-safety because the blades are concealed–storing open blades in a drawer can prove dangerous if someone is shuffling through it to find another cooking utensil.
