Herb Snips by Doug Black

Essentially a pair of scissors with multiple parallel blades, herb snips effortlessly expedite the tiresome act of mincing. With their help, scallions or other fresh herbs can instantly transform into a manageable, chopped pile. This take on herb snips features five three-inch stainless steel blades stacked on each silicone-coated arm. And although they'll likely remain in the arsenal of only the most pampered chefs, they also double as great low-tech household shredders. (Also on Cool Hunting: Shredding Scissors.)

You can buy the herb snips for $13 at Chef's Catalog.

While we've yet to actually try the chocolate,...
Smart Spice
Spices tend to come in a pretty standard size; they also spoil within a few months of opening. For most home cooks that means a lot of waste and jars of stale spices sitting in a cabinet. Smart Spice solves this problem by packing its organic spices in several single use servings (four to a box), ensuring that you'll always have a fresh supply...
SL16 Noooodle by Konstatin Slawinksi
For people like me who never know how much pasta to cook (it's always either too much or too little and I'm either unsatiated or have two days of leftovers), Konstatin Slawinski of ding3000 solves the issue with his SL16 Noooodle, a chrome device that measures amounts of spaghetti for up to four people and doubles as a trivet.
