Probably just my chef knife. But that's an obvious and boring answer.
My choice would be my hand blender. I use it for making any dips, many sauces (it is made out of metal) and it also got a blender attachment for shredding vegetables. One of the best investments I made for my kitchen.
Yeah, I love my chef's knife too. I recently received a hand blender secondhand but I am yet to use it!
Chef's knife is definitely not boring and may not be as obvious as you think. I come from a family that has only ever used cheap paring knives for everything that have never even been in the same room as a sharpener. Meanwhile, I haven't made a single dish without my Henckels since I bought it 5 years ago. My GIR silicone turner is a close second
I second the hand blender. It's just so versatile. I'll add soups and mayo to your list too.
