Let's face it, sometimes we don't want to, or need to, use our expensive, really nice knife for one thing or another in the kitchen. When that time comes around, trust us, you can't do better than the Colori series of knives from the Swiss company, Kuhn-Rikon. In fact, we confess to using these knives a lot and really liking them. The Japanese stainless-steel blades are incredibly sharp and they're coated in a coloful, non-stick finish that helps them glde through food. Each knife comes with a plastic sheath, so you can simply store the knife in a drawer while simultaneously protecting your hands and the blade edge.
