Easier to maneuver than a Chef’s Knife, and more versatile than a paring knife, the Utility Knife has just the right proportions to feel nimble in your hand for the small stuff (cocktail wedge, anyone?), but big enough to take on bigger jobs too (like breaking down your whole farmers’ market haul). Think of it as your new best friend in the kitchen.
