My 10 yr old niece is starting her chef summer camp on monday and was asked to bring a tagged kitchen knife.
I believe a sharp responsibly handled knife is safer than one with a “safe” dull blade, which requieres much more force to cut and can lead to accidents.
So, I taught her how to safely and responsibly handle a sharp kitchen knife, and had her practice using it for several days before gifting her first personalized knife.
Very nice! It’s good to see good knife discipline being spread!
How fun for her! I am constantly amazed at young kids who can cook so much better than I can! I never really learned to cook until after I was married. Mainly because I never needed to. My mom was always home and did it all. So kudos to your niece. Hope she really enjoys the cooking camp and learns a lot.
Good knife skills are something everyone should have! I hope she enjoys camp!
Very cool gift!
And the engraving is nice too! What font?
The font is Sacramento from the Premium service.
Nice! Way to be her favorite uncle.
Great idea to do some training and what a wonderful reward for doing well! Your niece will be the envy of everyone at summer camp
