I’m a big proponent of thoughtfully curating which kitchen gadgets you actually need, and an even bigger champion of investing in high quality when it comes to essential dining tools, such as a set of German-designed steak knives. Lo and behold, I’m adding-to-cart this sleek set from Zwilling, which is already a whopping 61 percent off on Amazon in anticipation of Prime Day:
If you’re new to Zwilling, it’s a legacy brand with a serious history; founded in 1731 in Solingen, Germany by blacksmith and knife-maker Peter Henckels, it’s one of the oldest trademarks in the world. But to understand its continued commitment to quality in modern times, you need only read the company’s enthusiastic description of its knives on the set’s Amazon product page. “WE KNOW MORE ABOUT KNIVES THAN ANYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD,” it declares. In fact, Solingen has been dubbed the “City of Blades” thanks largely to companies such as Zwilling that have been smithing swords, razors, and knives for centuries.
A set of steak knives can be a game-changer for dinner parties and home dining; even if you think you can get by with whatever cutlery you have lying around, you’ll quickly realize what a pleasure it is to use a nice steak knife. As a former vegetarian, there was a time when I, too, was content using the knives from my flatware set at the dinner table, but that’s because I thought it was normal to fumble slicing overripe tomatoes in Plato’s Cave. Now, I am happy to report that I am cutting through both wagyu beef and plump, fussy fruits alike with one effortless gesture of my steak knife. The only downside is that I only own four knives, which is why this silver-colored set from Zwilling caught my eye in the first place: for under $100, you will receive not four or six but eight knives that are svelte enough to fit in with all the other flatware in your kitchen drawer organizer (as opposed to steak knives with chunkier wood handles). And with a set of eight, you can truly amp up your summer entertaining.
I say, smash the order button and start making your life a whole lot easier.
The Zwilling steak knife set is available on Amazon, and check Eater’s coverage of early Amazon Prime Day kitchen deals here.
