Gift Ideas for Men Who Like to Cook

How can you prepare a thoughtful gift for a man who likes to cook?

Here are two gift ideas that may help you.

1、Victorinox Fibrox Pro Chef's Knife, 8-Inch

As a person who loves to cook. Whenever I hold a knife handle in the kitchen, it’s like I become the king of the kitchen.

I don’t know why, but I feel confident at that moment. This confidence comes from the belief that in about an hour (I usually keep my cooking time to about an hour) I will have a delicious, hearty meal for my family.

As an experienced home cook, I know the importance of a good set of knives.
It’s like I’m in command of a battle when I’m making accurate and fast cuts. (Remember that King of the Kitchen analogy of mine?)

For knives, the one I would definitely recommend is the Victorinox Fibrox Pro 8-Inch Chef’s Knife.

This is by far my favorite chef’s knife.

It has several advantages:

High quality and lightweight European steel.
Ergonomically designed handle that is comfortable to hold.
The long, angled curved blade is great for slicing and chopping.
National Sanitary Foundation (NSF) approved and dishwasher safe.

This knife meets almost everything I look for in a knife. I especially like the wide blade (I don’t handle narrow blades very well), and in fact, the wide blade makes me feel more safe.

It is very sharp and slices and minces effortlessly.

Tips:

Even though the instructions on this knife say it is dishwasher safe, I recommend washing it by hand. If not placed properly, the high pressure water in the dishwasher may cause it to fall over and damage the blade.
It is recommended to sharpen the knife briefly after 2-3 uses to keep the blade sharp.

When I first started learning to cook, I wanted to have access to a good knife. But when I saw the highly acclaimed Japanese knives, the high price turned me off.

I knew they were like works of art, meant for top culinary chefs.

What I needed more than anything was a very good, affordable knife. Luckily, I have Victorinox.

Here’s an introduction to Victorinox that I hope you’ll share with your friends when you give the gift of a Victorinox knife.

“The company Victorinox
In 1884, Karl Elsener opened his cutler’s workshop in Ibach-Schwyz. At this time Switzerland was still one of the poorer countries in Europe. In the early years Karl Elsener worked to combat poverty and unemployment in the Schwyz basin, creating jobs and helping stem the flow of emigration.
In 1891 he supplied the soldier’s knife to the Swiss Army for the first time. He went on to develop the Swiss Officer’s and Sports Knife – now the iconic Swiss Army Knife – in 1897, creating the foundation for a flourishing company that would be able to hold its own on the world stage.
From then on, his spirit of solidarity, deep roots in the region and strong commitment to solid values shaped the Victorinox company philosophy.
Today, Victorinox is a global company with five product categories: Swiss Army Knives, Household and Professional Knives, Watches, Travel Gear and Fragrances. The Swiss Army Knife is the core product and has a pioneering role in the development of all product categories.”

If he hasn’t used Victorinox knives before, you can give him this knife as a gift. I believe that he will love it as his main knife or as a spare knife.

Also Victorinox has a set of knives. Even for the set of knives, it is acceptable in price.

If your friend is just starting to show his passion for cooking, a complete set of Victorinox knives is a great encouragement.
