Gift Ideas For Guys That Are Hard To Shop For

As we wind up the Holiday shopping season I realize that there are many folks out there still struggling to find gifts for those that are hard to shop for. Well, I have an idea for the guys in your life that love to cook!

This item is features in our 2015 Holiday Gift Guide!

If you’ve got a guy that loves to cook, first off, CONGRATULATIONS! Clay loves to cook. he especially loves to grill. In fact, he grills all year long, not just in the warmer months. Our cookware is good enough. it gets the job done. And I love kitchen gadgets so we have plenty of those for specific cooking needs. Our knives kinda suck, though and I’m the one that does all the chopping and cutting, regardless of who is cooking. I recently learned about Shun knives and, even though this is a sponsored post, I can honestly say that I really, really want one!

There is a video on their site with chef Alton Brown showing Shun Knives and giving the science behind them. They look amazing.

Shun Knives originated in Seki City Japan. This is the same place that Samurai swords are from so you know the blade smiths from there know what they are doing! These knives are incredibly sharp and make chopping up foods a breeze. (please always use proper knife safety)

There are several different Shun Knives to choose from including:

• Blue
• Classic
• Dual Core
• Edo
• Premier
• Pro Classic Series
• Reserve
• Sora

There are filet knives, bread knives, carving knives, classic chef knives, etc. I would love to get Clay an entire set of Shun Knives. It would make both our cooking lives much easier. I don’t have super chef knife skills but a Shun sure would make things easier!

I would especially love to have one of these awesome looking paring knives!

So. If you have a guy (or gal) on your list that is hard to buy for and they love to cook, check out Shun Knives!
