The 8 Best Steak Knives to Buy in 2018

This 8-piece steak knife set will look great at the holiday table or for family dinners. Cleaning is easy, since they’re designed with dishwasher safe and corrosion-resistant stainless steel blades and handles. They’re made in a single piece with no seam, so they won't  collect food or debris.

Couples and small families don’t need a huge array of steak knives taking space in storage, so this 4-piece set makes sense for special family dinners, but they won’t eat into the steak budget.

The box has a mahogany stain that looks elegant, and a velvet lining keeps the knives safe from scratches.

The knife blades are made from precision-forged high carbon stainless steel and have a full tang and serrated blades for easy cutting and no need for sharpening. The handles are made from stainless steel and have a contemporary look that will complement any flatware set.
