Cut slivers of a crisp Bosc pear and slices of French bread during a spring picnic with this quality utility knife from Chicago Cutlery. Chicago Cutlery has 75 years of experience, crafting top-notch knives since 1930. From the Centurion cutlery line, the 5-inch utility knife is useful for a wide range of tasks in the kitchen, from chopping carrots and celery for a soup stock to cutting into a tender chicken breast.
Craftsmen forged the utility knife’s blade from high-carbon stainless steel, providing increased hygiene and permanence. The construction resists rust and stains while maintaining sharpness. The blade undergoes Chicago Cutlery’s special Taper Grind edge process to ensure the sharpest edge possible upon initial use, as well as through years of maintenance. For greater balance and strength, the utility knife benefits from a full tang and bolster. A comfortable polymer handle is secured to the blade with three stainless-steel rivets. To preserve the utility knife’s effectiveness, the blade should be sharpened regularly. Wash the knife by hand and dry immediately. To protect user hands from harm, store the utility in a knife block or affix to a magnetic strip. Chicago Cutlery offers a lifetime guarantee for all knives in the event of faulty materials or workmanship. Upon shipping, this item weighs one pound. --Jessica Reuling

Good value,

This review is from: Chicago Cutlery 1040698 5-Inch Utility Knife (Kitchen)
I continue to be impressed with the overall quality of this particular line of World Knives/Chicago Cutlery.I had bought the Chef's knife as a single item some years ago and should have bought a full set when they were still available.I added the utility knife and the paring knife this year. I do feel these are the best bang for the buck in low cost, intregal bolster knives.The steel is decent quality and the edges can be refined easily. Some may be dissapointed with the factory edge but those that know sharpening will not have a problem at all. If I did not already own a good slicing knife, that would be another I would buy in a heartbeat. The Sankuto looks trendy but honestly, if one can't get the job done with the Chef, Utility and Parer, they probably have a drawer full of unused knives.

If you're not going to buy a whole set--and it's not a necessity if you're not going to cook a lot--then buying just a few knives will be all you need. An 8 inch chef's knife, a bread knife, and this 5-inch utility knife will be more than sufficient for just about any task in the kitchen. The $8 price tag is great and it allows you to build up your kitchen tools supply on the cheap. This is a forged knife by a good brand, so I expect it will be very durable and work well for years to come.

I bought this for general, less demanding tasks like slicing cheese, toast or sandwiches, muffins or cakes. I don't keep it as sharp as the rest of my knives, for safety purposes, so I can relax while using it. I wanted a less aggressive point, as shown in the displayed picture, but it came with a different blade shape, more dagger-like, not exactly what I wanted. Sometimes you don't need the sharpest knife in the drawer.
