Cheese Utensils: How to Use

	NARROW BLADE KNIFE Used for medium and hard cheeses. The prongs at the end of the knife are used for serving. The holes in the knife prevent cheese from sticking to the blade.
	TEAR or PEAR-SHAPED POINTED KNIFE Used for cutting hard cheeses like Parmesan or Vintage Gouda. Hard cheese tends to crumble into chunks and pear-shaped knives,when inserting the tip and applying downward pressure, will help achieve the crumbles.
	WIDE BLADE KNIFE Used for soft, spreadable cheeses.
	NARROW BLADE KNIFE Used for hard cheese and cuts through more difficult cheese.
	PRONG KNIFE Prongs are used for serving soft and medium-hard cheeses.
	CHISEL KNIFE Used for hard and crumbly cheeses like Romano or blue cheeses.
	CHEESE GRATER A cheese grater is a perfect tool when working with harder cheese such as Parmesan. This particular unit pictured also has a convenient catch cup attached which reduces the mess!
	WIRE Wires are used for cutting firm cheeses.
	PLANE Planes are used to shave thin pieces of cheese.
	GRIOLLE The Griolle is a traditional tool and is used when serving Swiss cheese, more specifically Tête de Moine cheese. The cheese is placed over the spike in the middle of the Griolle and the handle is cranked around creating extremely thin crinkles of the cheese. The Griolle can also be used to shave chocolate to create petal-like shavings.
