A good set of knives is just as important as quality cookware. Chefs go crazy over knives, and I can understand why they become an extension of your hand in the kitchen. My new collection is razor-sharp to get the job done well and fast, and feel comfortable so you won't get fatigued. I love the storage block from acacia wood, an eco-friendly hardwood that has such a rich, warm grain. Best Dishes Paula Deen.
