Start — or Complete — Your Knife Collection
A well-chosen knife set removes the guesswork from building a kitchen knife collection. Rather than buying blades one at a time, a set gives you the core lineup — chef's knife, paring knife, utility knife, bread knife, and steak knives — in a matched block or roll, from a single brand and manufacturing standard.
At Tarzian West for Housewares, Brooklyn's neighborhood kitchen store for over 50 years, our knife set selection covers the full range from affordable starter sets to professional-grade German steel blocks.
Wüsthof — The Wüsthof Classic Starter Set 2-Piece is the ideal two-knife foundation: a chef's knife and paring knife from the most respected cutlery brand in the world. The Wüsthof Crafter Block Set-6 brings Wüsthof's premium forged-blade craftsmanship to a full block — a serious set for serious cooks. The Ikon Blackwood 7-Piece Set pairs the Classic Ikon blade with Wüsthof's striking African Blackwood handle.
Cangshan — The Cangshan ELBERT German Steel Forged Knife Block Set-7 for a full-block set with forged German steel blades at a compelling price point.
