When you are looking for a new knife, you are looking for a new right hand for in the kitchen. That's why it's important to take your time and explore all the possibilities. Let's look at a small selection to get started.
European chef's knives are one of the most common knives. Their rounder shape makes them perfect for rocking movements. They’re designed for universal use so not only can you use them for cutting meat, vegetables and fish, but they're also perfect for crushing garlic!

Japanese knives are made of a harder steel. Because of this their lemmet can be made thinner than European knives and be sharpened in a smaller angle (15° vs. 20°). Because the tip of the knife is lower, down-forward motions are better suited for this knife. This knife can be used for meat, vegetables and fish.
