At first sight you wouldn’t have guessed this is a knife – I mean it’s round after all, and that’s not exactly traditional…

Perfect for chocolate, herbs and spices

It’s called the ‘Chop Round Knife’ and the brains behind it, Paolo Lucidi and Luca Pevere of LucidiPevere Studio, claim that it’s usable with a simple design that sits well in the hand.

The Chop Round Knife comes in blue, grey, pink and black for $48 (about R330) here. I like it.

Take a look at this kitchen timer device that works with specially designed recipe cards. Like any recipe, you have instructions only the Kitchen Timer goes one step further and provides visual and audio feedback on progress.

If a set of instructions says to cook the chicken for 30 minutes, the arm will slide down the card in that exact amount of time – now that’s precision cooking!

Compass Pointe is a five bedroom luxury home in Whistler, Canada. Incorporating local stone, sandblasted fir, heated floors, open beams and floor to ceiling windows, the home frames a view of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, the village, and Fissile Peak.

It’s got a one-of-a-kind Italian pivot door, wine cellar, a gym and two-rooftop patios. If that’s not enough, there’s a chef’s kitchen and expansive entertainers’ patio, complete with a fireplace and hot tub baby!

How awesome (and gruesome) is this knife??? It actually works and comes complete with fake covered blood!

Get it here for $14.99 (about R125). It’s the perfect match for the Gruesome USB Chain Saw!

Check out this new electric kettle from Bugatti, and no, that ‘s not the car brand Bugatti, but their products are still upheld to a similar quality. The main draw with this one over a traditional kettle is the digital temperature readout.

Ferrari may be a name too big for the average home, but a German company is determined to drive their Ferrari-theme kitchen into your home! It boasts a high gloss laminate in red with lots of black accents and characterises an ergonomic design, of course inspired by the sleek and sexy curves of the Italian cars.

It has a second island, usually omitted from contemporary kitchens, as well as a ‘S’ shaped island with a fashionable sink located in the middle part. There are tall storage and wall-fitted oven units behind the island, the lustrous kitchen includes an electric cooktop, raised about the surrounding table, on a freestanding unit, so you may prepare and serve dishes without wasting any time.

This is making me hungry!

Isn’t this a novel ideal? A kitchen that folds into itself like a transformer… um, yeah

I suppose that’s what you get if it’s designed by someone named Ilja Oelschlägel!
