Knife by Tim Hayward
Knife is a love-letter to this essential culinary tool its form, history and creation
Knife by Tim Hayward is a truly wonderful bookThe kitchen knife is the cook's best friend and most essential tool. Clear and concise writing, as can be expected from Tim Hayward, accompanied by many many superb illustrations of knives, makes this a book to read, keep and cherish. I thought I knew something about kitchen knives but Tim's book opened many aspects of them: historical, social, aesthetic and cultural as well as gastronomic. For Tim is a cook and this is a book for people who know that all a cook really needs is a supply of clean water, a source of heat some food and a knife; a carefully chosen working knife. * Len Deighton *
