Recommend me a chef's knife

I suspect the relationship between a qualified chef and his knife is more like the relationship between a qualified minicab driver and his cab than that between a qualified violinist and his violin. Nevertheless, there are some lovely cars out there.

Are you suggesting minicab drivers habitually cut people up?

I am suggesting that they habitually cut up violinists.

You need to watch violinists, they can be vicious.

They can really saw a composition to pieces.
