Not all knives are created equal, and a chef's knife is given that name for a reason. A chef's knife generally has a supersharp end point and a curved, sloping edge. Chef's knives can range from the price of a specialty latte to hundreds of dollars. We've sliced and diced for in our kitchens for hours to find a range of chef's knives that will work best for nearly every type of cook, and we've found that the Hedley & Bennett Chef's Knife is best for most people, with the Global 8-Inch Classic Chef’s Knife being our runner up. Up Next I'll be testing the Mac Professional Hollow Edge 8" Chef’s Knife, which has consistently been the top pick in many competitors' guides.
