The long awaited /ck/ utensils thread is here! Enough with Jack threads, jap knives, and Jack in the Box. ITT we discuss and fawn over the ubiquitous tools and gadgets that don't get the attention they deserve.
Pic related is a peeler from Rosle, a German company that makes some some top notch kitchen tools. Come in and share your shit!

the only unitasker worth having is an electric kettle
I like to use my folded steel santoku to cut my Jack in the Box cheeseburgers whilst watching Cooking with Jack.

Bongs. Every single time...
This here is my own peeler, sold by Le Crueset. I like it because the handle is huge and the uhh yoke(??) that houses the blade is made of steel whereas cheaper peelers use plastic there.
Nothing better imo. Very light and professional.

This right here.
Ok next up I've got this Microplane grater/zester. It's pretty cash. I've been using it a lot to grate garlic since it's faster than mincing with with a knife and requires less cleanup than a food processor. Unless you're working with lots of garlic at once, microplane is the way to go.

Thanks Alton. Wise perspective to have as a home cook but if you're a professional and have to prep bushels of potatoes quickly, you'll unserstand why those are essential. Also various fruit and vegetable peels make nice garnishes.

Daaaaaamn. Looks antique. How did you get it?
my favorites
I need a knife but i've never bought one, always used ones my parents have left me.
What's a good way to choose a good kitchen knife?
Brands? Telltale signs of quality?

Use the bottle opener to open some cheap wine, cut open the ramen package and sachet with that camping knife and then take it to flavour town by crushing some garlic into the ramen.
Just jokes through, I like the look of that garlic press.

took a long time finding a stainless steel one that won't brake in the middle of a garlic orgy.
the bottle opener has a hinge on the top part, no more broken corks. used daily and will service a long time
