The chef's knife is the workhorse of the kitchen. We tested 30 chef's knives, from both Japanese and Western manufacturers, to find the best ones.
Exploring the finer points of knife construction and materials is interesting and, of course, useful to know, but ultimately the test of a knife is how well it performs in the kitchen. Since most home cooks just want a knife that does a good job out of the box, that's a quality we decided was of utmost importance—if a knife arrived with flaws, including fixable ones like a dull blade, we wouldn't recommend it.
I did much of the testing, but I'm a man who's nearly six feet tall, and left-handed. To make sure this review took into account another opinion, I asked Sohla El-Waylly to use all the knives also; she's shorter than me and has smaller hands, plus she's right-handed. The knives that we ended up recommending are ones that we both approve of, which should help cover a more diverse range of cooks and hand preferences.
Generally speaking, the Japanese knives moved through the paper with the least resistance, indicating a higher degree on average of out-of-the-box sharpness. Still, several of the Western knives were able to cleave through the paper without a hitch, indicating an acceptable level of sharpness. Any blade that snagged or tore the paper repeatedly was disqualified.
