These Knives That Cut the Toughest Steaks 'with Ease' in Our Tests Would Make the Perfect Gift, and a Set of 8 Is Just $45

Let’s be honest: The best part about cooking is actually sitting down to eat the meal. And the last thing you want to do after cooking up a holiday roast, chicken, pork, or steak, is struggle to cut through it, especially in front of all of your guests.

That’s where a trusty set of steak knives come in. If you’re missing some, or you know of a loved-one that could use a set, you’re in luck. Ahead of Black Friday, Amazon has slashed the price of one of our absolute favorite sets. These Henckels knives are a chic addition to any dinner table, and you can score a set of eight of them for just $45 right now.

Henckels Razor-Sharp 8-Piece Steak Knife Set

We love these knives most for their serrated design, which cut through even the toughest cuts of meat “with ease,” according to our testers. Coupled with their powerful jagged edges, they have uniquely curved blades. The base of the knife is wider by the handle, curves in, then tapers up at the end to create a narrow, pointed shape for incredibly precise cuts.  

They have fully stainless steel bodies, which look and feel expensive despite the fact that they’re lightweight. At 11.5-inches long, they’re also a nice comfortable size to hold as you use them, too. Plus, their overall slim size won’t be too big of a distraction or take up too much space on your dinner table if you plan to host. 

Another one of our favorite features is that these knives are fully dishwasher-safe, which means you don’t have to worry about cleaning them, especially after long cooking projects or during busy weeknights. However, we also didn’t mind cleaning them by hand, since they have a smooth shiny finish that's easy to scrub. We did find that an occasional polish was helpful to get that extra shiny appearance, since they’re stainless steel. 

Overall, we think these knives are a total steal for the cost, and the 25% off discount makes them that much more worth it. Pick them up now while they’re on sale as a gift to yourself or a loved one this season.
