Utensibility!

My Global Obsession

When Sam from becks and posh came up with this brillant meme, I knew immediately in my head what I was going to write up on – the item that I obsess most about in the kitchen, KNIVES!

I grew up with the kitchen mantra of buy a good set of knives and you will never regret it. No surprise then when I lived on my own, the first item that I bought for the kitchen was a chef’s knife. My mother started me on a set of Henkels, which served me good and well, but I decided that I wanted to try the something Japanese, something Global. What first drew me to the knives was how they looked, they looked so sleek and mean and I decided that I had to get one. I fished for an excuse and decided, well I need an Asian vegetable knife and so I bought a Global Asian Vegetable knife. It was love at first slice! So sharp, so good to handle, so beautiful. My love for the knife soon became an obsession, I could not only had one, I wanted ALL. Unfortunately the closest to all is the 5 piece set that I bought. I still want them all, but my mother already shoots me dirty looks when I wander off the the knife section at the departmental stalls and hence I shall have to lie low now, or do my shopping online. The next one I wish to acquire is the sashimi knife - that looks like a real lean, mean fish slicing machine. I WANT THAT NOW. Pleease?

Brillant meme! Sam, I hope you find something you liked!
