[Gift guide 2024] Professional Chef

Professional chefs spend most of their time either cooking, thinking about cooking, or secretly judging your knife skills. They won’t say anything … unless you ask, at which point you’re in for a full pinch grip tutorial. They don’t just “own” their knives—they forge a lifelong relationship with them, complete with regular sharpening dates and the occasional oiling session. Their beloved kitchen treasures – peelers, tweezers, spatulas, and numerous knives of different geometric shapes and sizes accompany them everywhere, kept safe in a stylish knife bag that matches their shoes. Because you never know when you’ll need to whip up an improv 5-course meal with wine pairing.
