Chef Pro Knives asked if my readers would like a giveaway of a gorgeous 4-piece knife set from Wusthof (Retail $110). Heck ya you would, right? They sent me the set to test out and I can tell you that my kids are in love with the cheese plane. We had one many years ago, but just like that sock that never shows up again, the cheese plane met the same demise.
It’s funny how you become complacent with the tools in your kitchen, never really questioning their usefulness until you are given a quality tool that seems to put your tried and true to serious shame. Enter the wine bottle opener. About 15 years ago I was sent a wine bottle opener from Gourmet Magazine. It was incredible. Then one day, my Mom decided it was hers and commandeered it. We went back and forth about who it belonged to, until I finally conceded and let her have it. I bought another that never quite compared, but alas it’s still in my tool drawer. The wine bottle opener in this set is like the one I received long ago, but nicer. I know, you’re probably asking yourself, how can a wine bottle opener be that great. It just is, it opens smoothly, with little effort and the cork screw is nice and sharp. I finally have a nice bottle opener again and I am over the moon happy.
The cheese knife is laser sharp, which is a standard for Wusthof knives and the cutting board is the right size for displaying an array of cheeses at your next party.
So what do you think? Would you like a chance at winning this gorgeous set for yourself? See below for entry instructions and best of luck to you!
Disclosure: I was provided a set at no charge to review. Giveaway sponsored by Chef Pro Knives. One winner will be chosen via random.org. Open to US addresses only.

July 23, 2013 at 11:27 amI know the contest ended some time ago. But I wanted to add that the cheese knife that Wusthof has is awesome sharp. We go through a decent amount of cheese at this house so this knife sees a lot of action!

February 5, 2013 at 12:37 pmMy favorite kitchen tool is my brownie pan! No really, its like the devil. The one thing that I use quite often is my Kitchenaid Stand Mixer. Be it cake, cookies, BROWNIES, pizza dough, bread or any other lovely thing I find while perusing Pinterest it seems to never stop running and is extremely reliable. Thanks for the opportunity to score some new cutting tools, I am finishing the final touches on a couple of butcher block style cutting boards for ME made from some hard maple. They should last the rest of my life and maybe even a couple of extra generations!
