Size

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.

  • Sold individually
  • 8 oz press is suitable for sandwiches, vegetables, and fish
  • 13 oz press is suitable for thick steaks, brassicas, and burgers
  • Weights labelled on the presses are not exact
  • Dishwasher safe.
  • Made in Oakland, CA.

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

Amazing

"The chefs press is plenty heavy, and enough to get a great sear on steak. I appreciate it being dishwashable so once I’m done with using it, I’ll toss it in the dishwasher, and it’s ready the next time I need it. If I need something heavier, it stacks well with the other presses. The gaps between the press ensure it doesn’t trap steam, too."

what great tools

"I was told by a friend how great these weights are and I had to try them. I love them- they are the best for searing, for grilled cheese and for marinades. I haven't had them long but they have been excellent- love the "forceps" too. Excellent to use for other things too."

Bonny J. (5/5)

Perfect if you need em !

"These do a very specific job in the kitchen perfectly . Great materials, really great design. Stackable for both easy storage and pressing multiple weights down on one item, lots of space for steam to escape . A 13oz + 8oz is pretty great for most jobs"

Quinn J. (5/5)

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."

Albert N. (5/5)

Chef Press is a game changer!

"Honestly did not expect something like chef press to make such a difference however the results are very much night and day. Many different use cases and find myself using them more often than I anticipated!"

"Super friendly staff who are knowledgeable and happy to help. I use the Chef's Press all the time - even for grilled cheese. Highly recommend!"

Catherine M. (5/5)

Great purchase!

"Probably one of my most-used kitchen tools. It helps my steak sear more evenly and has a good weight to it. The quality is excellent, very sturdy and resistant to rust."

Q&A

What are the dimensions of the presses, 8oz and 13oz? Also do both the 8oz and 13oz have the raised v shaped bars ?
Both weights are about 10.5 cm by 13cm. Both have the v bar for ease of use. They stack nicely with each other regardless of weight. I hope that helps! -Connor
