Most Bangladeshi kitchens run on a boti. It is great for fish, big vegetables and cutting while you sit. But many jobs are easier with a knife: slicing onions on a board, cutting tomatoes for salad, chopping chicken, peeling fruit at the table, or cooking while standing at a counter.
One knife cannot do every job well. So we picked the best knife for each job: a main chef knife, a small everyday knife, a compact santoku, a cleaver for chicken and fish, a budget set, and a sharpener to keep them all working. All are available online in Bangladesh with home delivery.
A tip for our humid weather: cheap blades can get rust spots if you leave them wet in a drying rack. Choose stainless steel, wipe the knife dry after washing, and a ৳150 knife can last a long time.
