I have used the Classic Visual Knife Cuts Model for two decades in both the culinary education and industry setting. I have found it to be a critical tool in the development of young cooks and chefs. In education, it is the perfect complement to any skills development lab. Our students utilize the Knife Cuts Model in all of their labs. I have found throughout my time using the model that there is a direct correlation to successful student outcomes with, regards to knife skill development. Culinary students are tactile learners, and the model kit is ideal for them to use in their lab daily activity. In industry, I utilized the model when I owned my restaurant. It served as a reference guide to my staff.

The Visual Model Sets are without question one of the most valuable learning tools available today. Throughout my 31 years of teaching, I have used many different learning aids, and I can say with complete confidence that these kits are the best on the market. The design and construction of these tools make them an incredible learning aid which will last for years beyond the classroom, and hold up even under the most rigorous of environments. I believe that no culinary student should be without one of these tools in the knife set, and should utilize the training guide as the standard for professional culinary production throughout their life time.
