Knife Skills 101

I've always wanted to take a knife skills class...and finally did at my local Sur la Table.  I had a blast, reconfirming things I already knew and learning lots of new things too. They say in cooking you're either a cutter or a burner, thus my enrollment.  Below is my beautiful new Miyabi 8# Chef's Knife (all you really need) and my first at home attempt and an even dice on onions, celery and peppers.
