 If you are out for a picnic or camping with family and/or friends, you don’t need the entire block set to come along with you – just choose between a serrated blade or a straight blade Paring Knife and you’re good to go!

 When you need to do the slicing, mincing, and chopping, you may be torn on what knife to use with so many on the list. At times, a Chef Knife is too long, while a Paring Knife is too small to be at ease. To do multitasking in one tool, we suggest that you own a well-made Utility Knife. This will do a versatile job in your kitchen and so during outings.

Technically speaking, if you are planning to have your meal prepared and you need a flexible and narrow-bladed knife with a finely tapered tip, then a Boning Knife is all you need.
