For a couple of years now, my husband has been getting me a Henkels knife
(I, too, prefer the Professional S series as I find it has the best balance)
for each birthday and Christmas. I just got the 10" chef's this year, but
am finding I prefer to use my 8". The next one I want is the 6" utility
knife - I got one for my best friend for Christmas and it is a truely handy
little knife. I personally think it is a very romantic gift, as only a cook
would. Something else I have picked up that I am loving is a magnetic bar
that is mounted on the wall that I put my knives on. It is right above a
marble slab (which I found at a garage sale for $75) counter top, so I can
see and grab whatever I want. I've also heard that knife blocks harbor
bacteria, and the magnetic strip is much more sanitary.
Congrats on the new knife and happy birthday!
