Messermeister Meridian Elite 5-Piece Next Level Knife Block Set

This Meridian Elite set gathers the three knives that cover everyday cooking, an 8-inch chef’s knife, a 6-inch utility knife and a 3.5-inch paring knife, along with a 10-inch fine honing steel and Messermeister’s Next Level magnetic knife block. Messermeister sums it up as chef-level performance.

The magnetic block holds the knives by their blades, so edges never drag against wooden slots, and every knife stays in view for quick selection. A few strokes on the honing steel before cooking keep the edges aligned between sharpenings. It is a complete starter kitchen for a new home, and a thoughtful gift for weddings and graduations. Each piece is covered by Messermeister’s Knife for Life warranty, which adds peace of mind to a gift meant to last.
