On a razor’s edge.
When Messermeister told us these slicers were the sharpest they’d ever made, we weren’t surprised. They were designed with a lil’ help from legendary bladesmith Shoichi Kawashima, and they’re crafted by third-generation knife artisans in Seki, Japan (aka the home of modern Japanese kitchen cutlery). Each one has an ultra-fine, 15-degree cutting edge made from rare powdered steel, plus a curved handle that’ll go easy on the hands and wrists.
Snap up whichever knife suits your fancy (there’s a 4-inch paring, 6-inch utility, 8-inch chef’s, and 10-inch slicer) or grab the five-piece set—which comes with all four, plus a magnetic wooden block that’ll keep ‘em always at the ready. Now, that’s a sharp lineup!

How we'd use this beauty in our own homes.

How Dansk’s teak stands the test of time.

We cook from scratch a lot here at Food52 -- yogurt, granola, sriracha, ricotta, bread -- but before we met Stephen Valand and Erica Shea from Brooklyn Brew Shop, we'd never considered making our own beer. We made a video with Erica and Stephen all about the beer brewing process -- be sure to check out Brooklyn Brew Shop and our Shop deal. And when your bottles of custom brew are ready, won't you share one with us?

Have you bought your Brooklyn Brew Shop beer brewing kit yet? If you've watched Amanda learn to make beer, you know that brewing is full of jargon to describe very specific stages of the beer making process. We've collected our top 5 basics below -- try tossing these around next time you visit your local bottle shop.1. Mash - This is just a mix of grains (mostly malted barley and wheat) and water. It looks like porridge, or oatmeal, or...well, mash. After it's simmered, you mash out by bringing it to a certain temperature (this is called mashing out). Then you're on to the next fancy word.Read more for the other 4 terms!
