Utility and Prep Knives
A utility knife is any type of knife used for general manual work purposes. Such knives were originally fixed-blade knives with durable cutting edges suitable for rough work such as cutting cordage, cutting/scraping hides, butchering animals, cleaning fish scales, reshaping timber, and other tasks
Peel and chop fruits and vegetables, slice meats and cheeses, and mince garlic and herbs. The size and shape of the prep knife make it ideal for use either with a cutting board or in hand.
