Dinner is served! Save big on these knife sets from Henckels and Zwilling.(Amazon)
Every year there's that one person who seems impossible to buy for. They don't golf, do yoga or indulge in some DIY. But if they love to cook, have we got the goods — right now Amazon has steak knives from Zwilling and Henckles for over 60%! It's a rare sale on these brands and makes them both a cut above. And it also cuts down your gift list, because if you order now, both sets will arrive before Christmas. So let's get chopping!
We often see this knife sharpener on sale for around $11 or $12, which is still a great price for an Amazon bestseller. But we've never seen it drop lower than its currently sale price, so if you're thinking of adding this gizmo to your collection, you'll want to act soon.
This little gadget will save you a few headaches and a lot of money. If you own a set of knives, there's a really good chance that they need sharpening. Even if you use a sharpening steel every time you cut through a tomato or chop celery, each slice slowly dulls the blade. You could take your knives to a professional, but not everyone has the time or money for that.
This 8-piece set of Porterhouse steak knives is precision-forged from a single piece of stainless steel, and comes with a stunning black presentation case that also makes it the perfect gift.
Zwilling is known for its chef-quality knives, and these are top-notch. Because they're forged (cut and pounded out) from a single piece of stainless steel they are razor-sharp and will last a long, long time. And you can't beat the price — right now it's slashed to $60 from $180, making it the lowest price we've seen since last Christmas.
"I have been a fan of Zwilling knives since my Army tour in Germany," reported a five-star fan. "This steak knife set is no disappointment. I am pleased that these have a good solid feel to them and maintain the Zwilling tradition of quality. My wife was very pleased to receive them as a gift."
If you want more than just steak knives, then this Henckels 15-piece set is a great option, especially now that it's 63% off. The handles are curved to fit comfortably in your hand so there's no slipping, and their sharply-honed stainless steel blades let you make even paper-thin cuts with ease. They're lightweight and easy to clean — because they're stain- and rust-free so you can wash them by hand or put them in the dishwasher without worry.
"Absolutely amazing set of knives!" wrote one of 11,000+ rave reviewers. "Bought them for my husband who loves cooking, I’ve bought a lot of different knife sets and these are hands down the best! He saw the brand being used on Hell’s Kitchen so he asked for them, these fit perfectly in both our hands, easy to clean/sharpen, and great quality!"
And dull knives out! This No. 1 bestselling sharpener is down to $14 — a price chop of more than 50%
"I love this so much," wrote one self-described "obsessed" reviewer. "I held off buying a sharpener for years because I thought it had to be electric and expensive. Well, this thing surprised me. ... It works SO WELL with only a couple of pulls in each slot. I have a whole new set of knives!"
