As someone who does cooking for a living, I'm very embarrassed to say that all my knives are actually pretty dull. Because I always wanted to invest in new equipment instead of spending on something that was working already. Although I'm very well aware that dull knives can be dangerous and that a good quality knife also makes you cook more efficiently. So I finally decided to get a good quality knife. And after some research, I found that the best most affordable cooking knife was a Sentoku knife from the Cooking Guild. This Japanese knife is 7 inch, so a little bit smaller than a regular chef's knife, but lighter for more precise cuts. My only requirement for this knife was that it would cut paper in one try as smoothly as possible, which in fact it can because I tried. So if that test is good enough for you, you should get this knife.

Y'all, I got a problem. I can't stop collecting knives. And this Japanese steel chef knife from the Cooking Guild is my latest addition. So let me put it to the test. I love the design, but I was definitely impressed by how smooth they cut through this steak. Definitely a great addition to my kitchen.

I received this knife as a free item and it's very sharp and it gets everything cut well.

Okay so I finally got a cleaver knife and I decided to get it on flip since I saw so many reviews on the app about this brand called the Cooking Guild and I'm here to give my honest review on it. So I have a very solid sentoku knife for everyday regular cooking that I also got from the Cooking Guild but sometimes you have to cut things that your regular knife just can't handle and a cleaver knife is perfect for those heavy duty stuff. I cook a lot of pork belly, whether it's braised, baked, air fried, deep fried, which is big fans of pork belly in the family and with a regular cooking knife I always struggle to get the pieces right. However, this knife made my life so much easier the past weekend when cooking my version of caramel pork. Every cut was so smooth and clean with such minimal effort. For someone that does cooking for a living, I know first hand that good quality cooking knives can get really expensive but in my opinion, this cleaver knife is a good affordable sturdy option for anyone who's interested in getting a cleaver knife. I hope this review was helpful and on that note, I'll be enjoying my caramel pork.
