Calphalon Premier 3-Piece Knife Set

$114.95

Chef's, serrated utility and paring — the three that do almost everything.

An 8-inch chef's knife for the bulk of the board work, a 6-inch serrated utility for bread, tomatoes and anything with a skin, and a 3.5-inch paring knife for the jobs done in your hand. Three shapes, three genuinely different tasks.

Why this one

Full tang with a bolster, so the weight sits where the blade meets the handle and the knife does the work instead of your wrist.
Contoured handles shaped to cut fatigue over a long prep — which is exactly where cheap handles give themselves away.
Enough blade strength to get through tough cuts of meat without flexing.
No filler. Three knives you'll use, rather than a block padded out to look generous.
