I am partnering with my friends at Wüsthof to giveaway a Wüsthof Classic 7-Inch Chai Dao Knife. There will be one (1) winner whom will receive one (1) Wüsthof Classic 7-Inch Chai Dao Knife. The suggested retail value of the Wüsthof Classic 7-Inch Chai Dao Knife is US$99.95.
Inspired by the traditional design of a Chinese Cleaver, which is called a Cai Dao, Wüsthof’s distinctively shaped Classic 7-inch Chai Dao features a wide blade with a razor-sharp fine edge that curves dramatically upwards as it nears the knife’s squared-off tip. The blade’s curvy profile – which is in sharp contrast to the perfectly straight blade style of the popular, Asian-style Nakiri knife – allows chefs and home cooks to quickly mince, chop, dice, and slice a myriad of ingredients by employing an effortless “rocking” motion on cutting boards.
The Classic 7-inch Chai Dao’s wide blade surface also makes it easier to scrape and carry prepped ingredients from the chopping block to pans, bowls and other vessels. The wider blade also makes the knife an ideal tool for smashing and crushing aromatics, such as garlic, ginger, and lemongrass.
While primarily designed for prepping vegetables and fruits, the agile and versatile Classic 7-inch Chai Dao has the power and heft to be able to easily transition from slicing paper-thin shallots to cubing tough cuts of beef.

A member of the stylish Shun Classic line, this multipurpose Santoku knife comfortably handles any kitchen cutting need from chopping to mincing, dicing, and slicing. Resembling something between a chef's knife and a cleaver, this tool features a wide blade measuring 6-1/2 inches in length. The scalloped detailing along the knife's cutting edge creates air pockets during use to prevent food from adhering its steel surface. 
This 7-inch multi-use Santoku knife effortless handles any household kitchen cutting need--from chopping to dicing and slicing. Designed to prevent food from sticking to its sides and increase efficiency; "hollow ground" refers to a row of oval-shaped grooves along the blade's cutting edge. By trapping air during chopping, food is less likely to adhere and more likely to fall to the side. 
Named for its weblike design, this spider skimmer from Helen's Asian Kitchen line is a handy, versatile tool for any food that needs quick draining. Crafted from rustproof stainless steel, the skimmer is sturdy and lightweight with a rounded shape that keeps hold of dumplings, wontons, and raviolis. Its netted design drains oils and water quickly and efficiently for better cooking results, and its bamboo handle is comfortable and heat-resistant. Measuring 7 inches in diameter, the skimmer is safe in the dishwasher for easy cleanup. A 5-inch version is also available. --Emily Bedard
