It's been the best present I bought him in a long while! So valuable - knowing how to cut properly and helps you be more efficient in the kitchen.

Most good kitchenware stores (like the Rolling Pin or Williams Sonoma or Sur La Table will let you try knifes to determine what fits your style. Another thing that was great about this class is that we got to use several different knifes to get a feel for what size and shape works for us.

I agree that the class taught me a lot and I feel more confident cutting and mincing. I also took the class because I was in the looking to replace my knife set. From what I have learned in Knife Skills 1, I was able to find the perfect knife for me and said NO to buying a block set. I took the Knife Skills 1 & 2 at Rolling Pin last summer.
