As a dedicated cook or professional chef, it is not unusual to have big sets of more than a dozen different types of kitchen knives in use at once.<\/p>\n

Is it complicated? It can be. Does it need to be that way? That depends on the amount of time you are willing to spend, and the level of precision and perfection you want your food to be. Using a knife designed specifically for a task just makes every cut a whole lot faster and easier, saving your head space from unnecessary calculating and envisioning.<\/p>\n

In fact, most people, even those who don\u2019t cook at all, typically have at least 3 different blades for various uses. Usually more. My mom has 5, and she\u2019s a vegan who only works on veggies and an unconscious minimalist who aspires to own as less as possible.<\/p>\n

And as everyone has or will have more than a knife or two, it doesn\u2019t hurt to learn about the knives and how to use them in the way they are intended for.<\/p>\n

Usually between 4 and 7 inches in length, the utility knife is most of the time treated as a mini chef\u2019s knife. It can come straight or serrated, and is good for cutting vegetables and meat that are too small for a chef\u2019s knife.<\/p>\n

Utility cooking knives often come with a scalloped edge for flexibility in cutting. It works perfectly for cutting soft as well as hard veggies, from tomatoes to squash. It is also very useful when you want to prepare lettuces, cabbage, and sandwich meat.<\/p>\n
