The Chef's Press is one of the handiest tools in your kitchen arsenal. Apply extra weight while keeping your hands free to expedite the cooking process and maximize flavour. Weigh down items on your grill for maximum sear, make your duck breast or bacon more crispy, or submerge food in marinades or sous-vide water baths.
We suggest you start with two presses to allow for some versatility. One press works for delicate vegetables and fish, while 2+ presses can be used on meats and heartier items. The presses stack easily onto each other, or can be shingled for longer items like flank steak and salmon fillets.

About Bruce Hill - The Chef’s Press was born out of true necessity in the tiny kitchen of Bix Restaurant down a secret alley in San Francisco, where Chef Bruce Hill was at the helm of the stoves. Presses speed up the cooking process, but conventional designs were awkward and trapped steam. This vented, stainless steel design has been carefully tested and manufactured by chefs, for chefs.

Reviews
One of the best additions to my kitchen!
"Grabbed two of the 8 oz Chef Presses and the round one, and I’m obsessed. The 8 oz presses are perfection for fish - they are heavy enough to hold the fish flat to get an evenly crisp skin, but also delicate enough to not smush it. I prefer to toast my bread on a skillet and again, the even browning while not smushing the slice is amazing. The round press shines for quesadillas; you get that ideal, uniform sear across the whole surface area. I love the versatility of being able to customize the weight according to the item being cooked. I am in love with the fact that they stack so neatly and now live in the drawer right next to the stove, and I'm going out of my way to make dishes where I can use them. Love a tool with minimal maintenance needs, and this one is super easy to clean - just pop right into the dishwasher and we're ready for the next meal. It's also built pretty sturdy, so I'm sure it's going to be a BIFL for me. Looking forward to expanding my collection with a few more of these. 10/10 recommendation!"

"Great product"
Great Product - Great Supplier
"Short version. . . the Chef's Press is a brilliant chef's tool. Simple but effective. Knifewear is an exceptional company, because they make it work smoothly. Longer version. . . Nothing goes as planned. . . or rarely. . . but you can judge a company by how they deal with "challenges". Knifewear did just that. What I ordered wasn't in stock. . . we computer SNAFU, but I was contacted promptly and given multiple options. I opted to allow the product to be on back order and, long before anticipated (under promise, over deliver), my second part of my order was fulfilled. Effortless! I would deal with Knifewear any day of the week. . . and the Chef's Press are damned fine too. Thank you (especially to Naomi)!"
Dreams do come true
"I had been waiting for Knifewear to restock these chef weights as I think they are the only retailer in Canada who carries them. Bought 2 8oz and 1 13oz. Works like a charm."
awesome multipurpose tool
"only regret is not getting the heavier 16oz set. might pick them up regardless"
