Triangle Serrated Cake Knife
Made of stainless steel, with a comfortable, riveted handle, Triangle’s Serrated Cake Knife cuts through all types of cake and pastry with ease. Designed to tackle any kind of texture or thickness, this knife has one serrated side that will cleanly slice horizontally through delicate sponge cakes to make layers, while the other side is made for smooth serving and slicing. We love that it can stand up to an array of fillings and various textures, so you can use it from start to finish on your plain baked cake all the way to the final frosted product.
triangle Tools Serrated Pie Knife
Slice your pie and serve it, too, with this Serrated Pie Knife from triangle Tools. This sleek, stainless steel server features one smooth edge and one serrated edge, so you can cut into soft cakes or pie crust with equal ease. After cutting, the pie knife’s flat 7-inch blade slides easily under slices to pull them out cleanly. Their tools are made in Solingen, a German city known for high-quality cutlery. The handle is made from a sturdy polymer, hand-finished and completed with rivets for secure attachment.
triangle Tools Fine Skimmer 1946
With its soft diamond shape and finer holes, the Fine Skimmer 1946 from triangle Tools is designed for finer tasks than its larger cousin. While it will also drain liquids with zero clogs, this fine skimmer spans the gap between a larger spider and a mesh skimmer. We love it for the in-between tasks, like blanching finely chopped vegetables and skimming small particles from boiling liquid (without having to break out a hard-to-clean mesh option). Like all of triangle Tools’ designs, the skimmer is sturdy enough to withstand the wear and tear of the busiest kitchen: It’s constructed with brushed 18/10 stainless steel, the industry gold standard for strength and quality. Use the hooked end of the handle to store the skimmer easily or hang it from the edge of the pot.
triangle Tools Cheese Grater
This cheese grater comes from triangle Tools’ Soul line, a series of high-quality kitchen tools developed for design lovers and gourmands alike. The grater comes with super-sharp teeth designed with a photo-etching process, a method that involves using photosensitive film and an acid bath to precisely dissolve a stainless steel sheet to produce the teeth, which behave like knives rather than simply ripping up food. The grater’s handle is made from smooth cherry, plum or walnut wood sourced from local orchards and forests; the handles are carved in nearby Sauerland before being fitted with the stainless steel grate in Solingen—a region of Germany famous for knives, kitchen tools and flatware—with renewably sourced electricity. This grater comes in a reusable gift box, ideal for last-minute gifting or (spoiling the chef in your life).
triangle Tools Reibe 2-way Grater with Catcher
We found it: the grater that won’t make a mess and works twice as fast. A 2-in-1 “catcher” clips under the grate to capture and redirect errant shavings; to protect the grating surface, simply clip the catcher on top of the grater to guard blades (and fingers) when the grater is stored. The Reibe has an ultrasharp grate with medium holes designed to deliver a coarse shaving, perfect for grating vegetables for salads. And blades are arranged to cut foods in two directions, speeding prep time. These stainless steel graters come with nonslip nubs and a notch at the base to ensure a secure hold on cutting boards and bowls.
triangle Tools Aroma Grater
The Aroma Grater from triangle Tools was designed for breaking down delicate aromatics—like ginger, garlic, citrus peel, wasabi and more—without leaving excess fiber in the pulp. The Aroma’s specially designed plastic teeth and stainless steel casing separate into two pieces, so any unwanted fibers—like the stringy ones from ginger—stay stuck on the plastic, leaving only smooth pulp for you to slide into your bowl.
triangle Tools Oyster Knife
Pry open oysters like a pro with this stainless steel oyster knife from triangle Tools. This professional-grade knife beat out our prior favorite—its solid blade and ergonomic handle makes opening oysters easy, fast and safe. Both the blade and handle are crafted from a single piece of steel, for extra sturdiness; the slim, hand-sharpened blade is slanted slightly to one side, which makes it easier to slip into tight oyster hinges. We tried this on oysters of all different shapes and sizes; it worked seamlessly across the board, effortlessly opening small, large and delicate, breakable shells.
triangle Tools Skimmer 1946
With its wide, shallow bowl and large square holes, this skimmer from triangle Tools was designed to drain liquids with zero clogs. Like all of triangle Tools’ designs, the skimmer balances form and function, sturdy enough to withstand the wear and tear of the busiest kitchen: It’s constructed with brushed 18/10 stainless steel, the industry gold standard for strength and quality. Use the hooked end of the handle to store the skimmer easily or hang it from the edge of the pot, so your utensil is at hand for fishing out perfectly al dente pasta or golden-brown fritters.
