Our take on the Cooking Essentials Gift Set

A three-piece knife set with a heavy duty paring knife, a utility/steak knife and a tomato slicer. Blades are hand-sharpened T420 high-carbon stainless steel, hollow ground for edge retention. It works as a starter set or a gift for someone building a kitchen, and as a low-commitment way to try the brand's top sellers. Against full block sets it covers only small prep and slicing tasks, with no chef's knife or bread knife.

About the Cooking Essentials Gift Set

This set has three knives: a Heavy Duty Paring Knife, a Utility/Steak Knife and a Tomato Slicer. It can be used for a range of everyday cutting tasks.

The blades are made from surgical-quality T420 high-carbon stainless steel. They are hand sharpened and hollow ground to keep a sharp edge. Each handle has a built-in finger guard.

The Heavy Duty Paring Knife has a slightly longer handle than the Regular Paring Knife. That gives more leverage and control with larger foods such as cucumbers and potatoes, and it can also be used to trim chicken breasts.
