Christmas Gift Guide 2024

Need some ideas for the festive season?

We're here to help with any questions and recommendations you might need whether you're shopping to a budget or looking for something specific for the knife enthusiast in your life.

Our #1 Suggestion for knives

If you're buying a knife for someone else and they've not given you a specific idea of what they'd like, we typically recommend a stainless steel knife and one that's a good all rounder shape like a gyuto, santoku or bunka which will do a wide range of jobs in the kitchen.

Carbon steel is wonderful but it does require a little extra care and if you're not sure whether the recipient is expecting their knife to react with ingredients when they start cutting it's usually best to choose something stainless.
