These Swedish dish cloths can sop up a mess better than any paper towel—and they’re reusable. Beat that, big paper!

Anyway, one of these dishcloths will wipe up any mess, no problemo. 

A Grippy Y-Shaped Peeler: KitchenAid Classic Y Peeler

A Y-peeler is a game-changer: the wide, horizontal blade swiftly cuts through peel and skin without scraping away what’s underneath. Get one (or two) of these grippy KitchenAid peelers, and you’ll be re-gifting your swivel peeler faster than you can say “peeled spuds.”

A Bench Scraper You’ll Wish You’d Bought Sooner: Norpro Grip-EZ Scraper

I was a bench scraper skeptic for a long time—until I got one. Now I can’t imagine how I lived without it. This option from Norpro has a solid, grippy handle and a sharp (but not too sharp) blade that easily swoops under diced vegetables and cleanly cuts dough. The measurements on the blade come in handy when you need to precisely cut things like gnocchi.

An Oyster Knife for Your Holiday Oyster Platter: Dexter-Russell New Haven Style Oyster Knife

One of my first kitchen jobs was shucking oysters, but the beautiful vintage shucker the chef gave me was duller than waiting at the DMV to renew your license. While you don’t want a shucker to be super sharp, it still needs enough of an edge to grip into the side of a bivalve and swipe the oyster cleanly from the abductor muscle. This one from Dexter-Russell does just that, and the grippy handle and pointed New Haven blade make it great for beginners.
