Our take on the Think Outside The Plate 8 Inch Chef

The Think Outside The Plate 8 Inch Chef is a US-made chef's knife with an 8-inch stainless steel blade and a black wood handle. It is a single, hand-wash-only knife aimed at home cooks who want one solid all-purpose blade for chopping, slicing and dicing. Against mass-market stamped knives it offers a full-size 8-inch blade and a warm wood handle, but it lacks the forged bolsters, premium steels and lifetime backing of established cutlery lines. Buyers should expect to dry it by hand to keep the steel rust free.

Questions and answers

Is this a good first chef's knife?
Yes, if you want one versatile 8-inch blade and will hand wash it. It covers chopping, slicing and dicing, but it is not a forged premium knife.
Can it go in the dishwasher?
No. It is hand wash only. Wash and dry it promptly to keep the stainless blade rust free and the wood handle from drying out.
What is the blade made of?
Stainless steel, listed as rust free with normal care. The exact steel grade is not specified, so edge retention will be below high-end knives.
How does it compare with a forged German chef's knife?
It is lighter in construction and lacks a forged bolster. A forged knife typically holds an edge longer and carries a stronger warranty, while this one is simpler and US-made.
What's in the box?
The knife itself. It is not sold as a set, so no block, sheath or other knives are included.
