Until now I did not really understand the true meaning of "it glides like butter". I have some knives I splurged on from Pampered Chief that I thought were sharp-- . However, these beauties that my Husband gave me for Christmas "glide like butter"! So sharp I was pretty sure that I was going to cut a phalange off (see I remember something from biology). I have a few small cuts... but nothing that I could not manage by wrapping a paper towel around as I finished up. After a month... I do much better and am not as fearful of their sharpness.
Cutting and chopping is such a delight. Now I know why the professional chefs do not use a pampered chef chopper or a food processor. They have sharp knives, baby!
Here I chopped, chopped, chopped up lots of broccoli for my homemade broccoli soup.
See those beautiful chopped onions... I chopped them myself!
And when it was done cooking...I just pureed the soup in the blender! Kind of ruined my beautiful cut vegetables. A cool blender though-- maybe I will blog about that another day.

MMM I love my sharp knives - I always tell my MIL about that - I had those dumb P-Chef ones too - still do because they are nice backups but they are so light and silly.......
Welcome to the grown up knife world!
