I have been waiting anxiously for my Gunter Wilhelm package to arrive and its finally here! I, along with a few others, have been graciously chosen to be a GW Exclusive Ambassador. Meaning, I get to share their amazing product lines with you! I was lucky enough to meet them at The World Food Championships this year. I was blessed to receive a handful of their knives and fell in love right away. My husband and I have been married for almost 10 years and lets just say the knives we’ve been using are as old as our marriage. Needless to say, we feel spoiled and are extremely grateful!

On a shoestring budget, Paul interviewed over a hundred chefs in the New York City metropolitan area about what they thought of the leading knives in the market. The inputs from the chefs were clear. They wanted a more balanced, heftier knife with a sharp heel and smooth corners. They wanted a balance of form and function; a knife to match the artistry of their signature dishes. The outcome of Hellman’s research and development effort was an outstanding, patented triple-tang handle design that features a balanced blade, ergonomic hold, high quality and beauty. Moreover, the attention to details and fine workmanship add a layer of comfort and efficiency to help your productivity in the kitchen….

I was able to get my hands on a 7 piece Lightning Pro Cut set at The World Food Championships last year. These knives changed our lives in the kitchen, which in turn, changed our lives in little ways outside the kitchen since we spend so much time in there. 🙂 My Package consists of a handful more of the Lightning Pro Cut and a plethora of the Premier Pro Cut with a block and other tools AS WELL as a few of their ProCook Nonstick Cookware.
