Choppers. The chopper is the most common Chinese chef knife. Its blade is thicker than the slicer, but not as thick as the cleaver. They can be used for lots of tasks like mincing, slicing, and chopping vegetables, herbs, and meat.
Similar to carving knives, slicing knives have long, thin blades with either a round or pointed tip. With a more flexible blade than a carving knife, they are used to cut thinner slices of roast, fruits and vegetables.
They feature scalloped edges and blades that are slightly longer than standard paring knives. A sharp utility knife is very efficient for slicing fruits and vegetables, and they're an ideal tool for food prep.
