This is such an incredible opportunity to own a set of the best kitchen knives money can buy – I had to write a quick blog post about it!
Who makes the best kitchen knives?

Amazon offers it now for only $299! UPDATE: Amazon keeps raising the price on me. 
Sorry, I don’t mean to be misleading, of course, but I can’t keep up with the almost daily changes. I guess we need to watch for the best price, for a while. Maybe they’ll go down again…

J. A. Henckel Knives
From the Amazon.com review:
If top-shelf Henckels knives will break your bank, you can still get high-quality performance and construction with the mid-range Henckels Gourmet line. A full-size collection, this 18-piece set thoroughly outfits a chef, as well as eight steak dinner guests. Each Gourmet knife is stamped from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel, honed by hand, and hardened by the Friodur ice process, for maximum strength and stain-resistance. These knives boast a full tang, which is triple-riveted to a contoured handle made of Novadur polypropylene. This construction is impact-resistant, comfortable to hold, and durable. Complete with its own storage block, the set includes a 4-inch paring knife, a 5-inch serrated utility knife, a 6-inch utility knife, an 8-inch chef’s knife, an 8-inch carving knife, and an 8-inch bread knife, as well as a meat fork and eight steak knives. A 9-inch steel for sharpening, a pair of kitchen shears, and an instructional knife-skills video are also included. The set is safe for the dishwasher, but washing by hand is recommended.
Made in Germany – Henckels includes a lifetime warranty.
If I didn’t own these best rated kitchen knives already – God I would jump at this incredible sale opportunity!
Buy this set as a gift for a chef and you’ll never go hungry for the rest of your life!
(Actually, I should have said “for the rest of that chef’s life”, of course.)

Wow! This is an incredible deal for kitchen knives — appreciate you spotting such deals for us readers! BTW I need to attend Knife Safety 101 as I have cut my fingers way too many times with sharp knives — I think it’s because my fingers are too long and keep getting in the way.
