Abstract: A hand held multi-bladed knife is provided for kitchen use. Specifically, a hand held knife is provided having five generally parallel precisely curved blades extending from a handle. The blades have a sharpened edge along their length leading to a point and an opposite, unsharpened blade back. The blades are equally distanced in relation to one another so as to allow the user to make uniform consistent slices of various food items in one quick and easy motion and to allow the user to mince, dice or chop many different food items as well. Each of the five blades has a tang extending in a direction away from the point of the blades and which are ultimately interconnected together and enclosed within the handle of the knife.
