The best Prime Day deals on knife sets are still over 45% off today

This set of eight steak knives from a trusted brand makes a great gift for a grill master, someone moving into a new home or anyone who needs to refresh their everyday utensils.

Each stainless steel blade features a 4.5-inch steel blade and triple riveted handles, meaning they won't bend or break. The knives are balanced and lightweight enough for anyone at the table. While these are dishwasher-safe, we recommend hand-washing and drying all your knives to maximize their lifespan.

When you find a deal on Ina Garten's go-to knives, you've got to act fast. These German knives and kitchen shears are forged from durable high-carbon steel and the 15-slot knife block is crafted from countertop-worthy acacia wood.

The set includes all the knife sizes you'll ever need for meal prep, a honing steel and steak knives for dining. There's an 8-inch chef's knife, 8-inch bread knife, 4.5-inch utility knife, 2.75-inch paring knife, four 4.5-inch steak knives, kitchen shears and a honing steel.

At a whopping 45% off, it's a legit deal on knives you will use daily for all your kitchen tasks. The only drawback? They're not dishwasher-safe, and if you do run them through the machine repeatedly, they will not last as long.

Finding just one decent knife for less than 30 bucks can be a challenge these days, let alone an entire collection. That's why this one — which has been slashed to its lowest price yet — is such a steal.

Our senior deals writer Britt Ross got this set for her sister, who says that while "everything has been staying sharp so far," she appreciates that it "comes with a sharpening steel" and "has the knife styles I frequently need." She also prefers "a minimal aesthetic" in her kitchen and says this set is "the opposite of an eyesore."

Bonus: The knives and shears are all dishwasher-safe.

At 35% off, the slice is right when it comes to this popular set from the innovators at Ninja. If you could use one less thing to remember, go ahead and cross "sharpen knives" off your to-do list: These come housed in an attractive wooden block with a built-in foolproof sharpener.

You'll get an 8-inch chef's knife, an 8-inch slicing knife, an 8-inch bread knife, a 6-inch utility knife, a 7-inch santoku knife, a 5-inch boning knife, a 5-inch utility knife, a 3.5-inch paring knife, six steak knives and kitchen shears. The German steel knives feature full-tang construction and ergonomic handles, allowing you to chop with confidence!

This sharp-looking (and sharp!) collection makes a great gift for a grill master, someone moving into a new home or anyone who needs to refresh their everyday utensils.

Each features a 4.5-inch steel blade and triple-riveted handles, so no fear of bending or breakage. The knives are balanced and lightweight enough for anyone at the table. While these are dishwasher-safe, we recommend hand-washing and drying all your knives to maximize their lifespan.

At 30% off, the slice is right with these mod-looking steak knives — this is the lowest price we've seen all year! And when a set comes from a classic brand like Henckels, you know you can trust that the German-engineered stainless steel blades are sturdy enough to stand up to thick steaks and chops. They won't bend or break, but they will make elegant slices of whatever protein you're serving. 

The set includes eight serrated knives that are dishwasher-safe, though we always recommend hand-washing knives to prolong their lifespan. They'll make a sleek addition to your next steak night dinner party.

A 20-piece winner from a trusted brand for under $200? Yes, dreams do come true. And that's not all, folks! The sleek knives are housed in a wooden block with slots that hone each blade every time you use them. Yep, you never have to take that extra step to sharpen them because the knife block does it for you.

At the lowest price year-to-date, we are snapping up this set which includes 3- and 4-inch paring knives, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, a 5.5-inch prep knife, a 6-inch utility knife, a 5.5-inch boning knife, a 7-inch santoku knife, an 8-inch chef’s knife, an 8-inch carving knife, an 8-inch bread knife, eight 4.5-inch steak knives and kitchen shears.

The self-sharpening slots are even labeled so that each time a knife is removed or replaced, you're ensured proper placement — genius! Note: The knives must be hand-washed and dried.

From a brand you know and trust comes another blockbuster deal on a primo pair. At more than 40% off (19% less than the lowest price we've seen this year), you can score Wusthof's classic 3.5-inch paring knife and a 6-inch hollow-edge chef's knife for all your meal prep needs.

The stainless steel blades are made of single-piece construction for durability and longevity. The dimpled blades make for smoother cuts and prevent food from sticking the blade, whether you're prepping chicken and vegetables for a stir-fry or fruit for a salad.

While the brand says these are dishwasher safe, they will last much longer if you hand-wash and dry them. 

This gorgeous pair is down to the lowest price we've seen all year. The mesmerizing pattern is created by the folding, heating and forging of steel, resulting in exceptionally sharp and durable blades. You'll get a 4-inch paring knife and an 8-inch chef's knife.

At $105 for the pair, you're getting a true value — a high-quality chef's knife alone would run you upwards of $100.

Reminder: Please don't run these beauties through the dishwasher. They should be hand-washed and dried.

On rare sale, this starter set of beautiful top-quality Japanese slicers includes a 7-inch hollow-ground santoku knife, a 3.5-inch paring knife and a 6.5-inch Nakiri knife. With these three blades, you can handle almost any food prep task.

When I tested the best chef's knives, I found Shun's to be one of the heftier Japanese-style options, but it still felt balanced. The brand's knives are easy to maneuver and I love the look and feel of the smooth Pakkawood handles.

Added value: Shun offers free sharpening services for its knives. Either ship or drop off your Shun knives to the warranty department, and the company will sharpen and return them to you.
