There’s nothing more tedious – or more dangerous – than cooking with dull knives. Dull knives are more likely to slip, skid, and slide around while you’re chopping instead of actually cutting through your food, which means it’s easier for the blade to go somewhere unexpected – like your fingers. If this is sounding eerily familiar to your current kitchen set up, it might be time for a new set of knives. Luckily, Costco is currently selling a self-sharpening Calphalon knife set for $50 off, and it could be a game changer for your culinary skills.

The Calphalon Contemporary SharpIN 14-Piece Knife Block Set usually costs $189.99, but right now Costco members can buy it for $50 off, $139.99 online and $129.99 in stores. The 14-piece set includes essentials like a paring knige, a chef’s knife, kitchen shears, and steak knives, and the knife block features the brand’s signature “SharpIn” technology. Each knife slips into the ceramic self-sharpening slots, getting sharpened every time you take one out or put one away.

This 12-piece set includes an 8 inch chef’s knife, 6 inch serrated utility knife, 5 inch santoku, 4.5 inch parer, 6 steak knives, kitchen shears and a self-sharpening knife block with built in ceramic sharpeners. It has 4.6 out of 5 stars from 3,114 reviews, and is 15 percent off.

Whichever set you choose, upgrading your knives will make a huge difference in how much you enjoy cooking and making food at home.
