An all purpose kitchen knife that is used for most types of chopping, dicing and slicing with a blade that ranges in length from several inches to 12 inches in length. The smaller sized knives are typically referred to as mini chef's knives while the longer lengths are known as traditional chef's knives. The heft, weight and balance of this knife allows it to be used for heavy duty work with thicker cuts of vegetables, fruits and meats. This knife may also be referred to as a French knife.
