Pampered Chef 12-Piece Knife Block Set Giveaway
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure policy.
Happy Monday, friends! I hope that you all had a beautiful Easter weekend filled with lots of hope and goodness. And hopefully some carrot cake and a few Cadbury eggs. ;)
Instead of a recipe this Monday, I’m happy to announce that we have an extra-special giveaway launching on the site today for — you guessed it — a Pampered Chef Bamboo Knife Block Set!
Now, I definitely used to be the poster child for cooking good food with bad knives, having survived my twenties (including a few years blogging) with the $30 knife set I bought in college. Never let anyone tell you it can’t be done. But man oh man, cooking is sure a lot more fun and much more efficient with a set of really good, well-made knives on hand. Especially a gorgeous 12-piece set like this. Well worth the investment if you spend considerable time in the kitchen, in this food blogger’s sharp-knife-loving opinion.
So if you would love to add a set like this to your kitchen, read on for more details about this set and take a minute to enter the giveaway for a chance to win!
So what’s so great about this set?
Well, first of all I’m happy to say that I can vouch for it from personal experience. I have been a Pampered Chef fan for many years, with many of their products in my kitchen. (And I still buy my favorite Pampered Chef ice cream scoops as wedding presents to help friends easily fill cupcake and muffin liners, which earns me the raised eyebrow and then later a gushing thank-you once they realize how awesome those scoops are.) Anyway, the kind folks at PC heard about my hodgepodge of mostly bottom-of-the-line Walmart and TJMaxx knives and offered to send me a beautiful set to try out. And then — bonus — a second one to give away for one of you too!
And oh my goodness, I genuinely am in love.
I mean, I was super-stoked when I read all about Pampered Chef’s forged cutlery line. And things like the “fully forged, high-carbon German steel” that gives the knives the “perfect edge and sharpness, stain and corrosion resistance, and superior strength and durability”. And “full tang for strength and perfect balance”. And protective covers for each knife, especially handy for transporting them to my food styling gigs.
But any cook will tell you that the real test for knives happens once they’re in your hot little hands. And you get to put them to the test trying to cut open that pineapple, or slice a warm loaf of bread, or core some fresh tomatoes, or dice a pound of raw bacon. (Check, check, check and check.) Let me tell you — these knives not only sliced through those tests with flying colors, they actually made all of that cutting prep work feel like a party! Whoo — so fun!!!
Seriously, they fit in my hands perfectly. They felt like a nice weight. And goodness gracious, they are sharp and easy to use.
So you may be asking, what’s in the set? Well, lemme tell ya. The 12-piece Bamboo Knife Block Set includes a:
- 9″ Bread Knife
- 8″ Chef’s Knife
- 7″ Santoku Knife
- 5″ Santoku Knife
- 5″ Utility Knife
- 5″ Boning Knife
- 4 1/2″ Serrated Knife
- 3 1/2″ Paring Knife
- 3″ Petite Paring Knives
- Bamboo Knife Block
- Forged Cutlery Honing Tool
- Professional Shears
Feel free to click on any of the links to learn more about each individual piece. But basically, you have a rockin’ set of knives. (The 8-inch chef’s knife and 5-inch santoku are my new favs.) Plus a classy knife block. Plus a honing tool that is super-easy to use and works like a charm. Plus — arguably the most-used item in my kitchen — shears. Oh man, do you all use kitchen shears as often as I do? Muy importante.
But I have to say, one of my favorite things that comes with set is not pictured — a lifetime guarantee. Boom.
So all that said, if you happen to be in the market for new knives, I would totally recommend checking out this set. Or even looking into trying out one or two of the individual pieces if that fits better in your budget. You can also connect and learn more about Pampered Chef on their website, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
But either way, you should totally enter the giveaway to win a set too! Here’s how to enter:

Love this knife set, so nice!
I’d love to win this!! I have 6 children so we don’t eat out often, I cook most of the time. I love to cook and quality knives would make such a difference!!
Could use this !
My knives are so ooooldd! They definitely need to be replaced & these look great. I always have had good luck with pampered chef products. Love ’em!
This would be an awesome prize to win
I would really love to have this knife set because I love Pampered Chef products and I do almost all of the cooking at home myself. It would really make my kitchen more complete.
Thank you!!
We are working with a “Wal-Mart special” set which is anything but! I love our other Pampered Chef pieces and these knives would be a dream!
I LOVE Pampered Chef everything, and I have a knife set from Walmart that I complain about every time I use it to cook, haha! These knives would make cooking/chopping/prepping food so much easier!
Amen! Good knives make all the difference!
Hubby and I love to cook, but our knives are cheap and definitely not up to the task of cooking our favorite dishes. I’m still using the budget set of knives that I picked up for my first apartment when I moved away to grad school in 1996! Time to upgrade to good knives, for sure.
Great giveaway! I would love this!!
These would help out tons with all the veggie trays i seem to be making lately!
I’ve never had a knife set – just some random knives from here and there. Love Pampered Chef too!
I need new knives so badly. This is an awesome giveaway.
I would love to have a set of Pampered Chef knives in my kitchen! I’m currently working with a set that is more than 20 years old. Rose
There’s nothing like a good knife to make a cook a real chef….I would love this set because my last good set came as a wedding gift and we are celebrating 25 years this November….that’s a lotta chopping, slicing, and dicing, and a big part of a happy marriage!
I would use it to cut up all the vegetables I am growing this summer.
I have the individual Pampered Chef knives (some of the green ones) and they are the only ones I like to use! I love how great they chop and it doesn’t leave your hand tingling from trying to slice so much.
It would be nice to have a matched set of knives! I could go through the drawer full of mismatched crap and get rid of a bunch of stuff!
Would love to have this knife set.
no matter how many times you sharpen them, sucky knives will be sucky knives and i have sucky knives. these knives will make cooking more enjoyable
I would love to win this set of knives because I am constantly cooking and serving others. Some friends and some strangers. These knives would make it so much easier. Thank you for doing this and for all your great recipes. I like that fact that many of your recipes are more on the healthy side too. Thanks for all you do.
nothing like nice quality knives
Love Pampered Chef!
Yesterday, I visited my son in his new home and cooked Easter dinner with him. He has an AMAZING set of knives that I’m ashamed to admit I totally lusted after … how wonderful it would be to have a “forever” set to replace my “patchwork/sale/clearance” set!
Wow, after almost 37 years of being married, I’ve never actually had a knife set. Only a few that match and then they are not the best but we get by. Would be a great advantage to have a set like this! Just imagine how much faster and easier the food preparation would be! What a fun and exciting give away!
This an awesome set! would love to have it!
While attempting to introduce my wonderful other-half to caprese salads (with avocado) two weeks ago, I found that he has gone through life with butter knives, steak knives and ONE other knife. I was in tears…
I would use it to cut up fresh fruit and veggies that are all in season.. yeah!
I need a really good knife set. I have a set that has chips out of the knife part.
What would I do with a new set of knives?
I would chop up much more than just plain old chives.
A set of PC knives would put me in the mood
To more easily create some great tasting food.
Slicing and dicing would be effortless and easy;
my current knives make my skills look quite cheesy.
New knives would make friends and family impressed,
saying “Wow with new knives, you’ve become the best!”
So, please, pretty please, pick my name for the knives,
so that I can improve my family’s eating lives.
I’d love to win this knife set to continue cooking healthy foods for my husband and myself and because my current set of knives are not that great anymore!
I am dreaming of a knife that I can cut a tomato and not squish it to death. So this set would be an amazing thing to have in my kitchen. Thank you for the chance to win.

I really need some good knives! This would be great now that it is fresh fruit season – love cut up fruits and fresh veggies this time of year.
I love pampered chef, I only have one of their knives right now and I use it for everything. Just couldn’t afford a whole set so this would be perfect.
I would love this knife set! That’s something we have never really invested in and could definitely use!
We’ve been desperately needing a new knife set! I’ve actually been avoiding some recipes that need a lot of things chopped/sliced/cut because our knife set is so pathetic! Would love to win!
OMG I need this because I’ve never had good knives before! I’ve been surviving on a cheap set from Target forEVER but I think having good knives would make all the difference for me in the kitchen.
Thank you for this giveaway! I need a good knife set badly! It’s probably one of the most important items in the kitchen, but one I never seem to have extra money to invest in. I’m forever murdering my veggies with my current knives.
I have a few pampered chef knives and love them. They are as sharp today as the day I bought them and they look brand new. I would love to add a few more to my collection, especially the chefs knife!
I need a good set of knives. I love cooking homemade meals.
I am a junior in college and love cooking….except for the fact that I have $3 knives from Target!!! I love to make recipes from your blog for all my roommates and boyfriend so I would LOVEEEEE to have these knives to use :)
I would love a new knifeset. Much needed for my summer parties I am going to be cooking for.
Love to win these
These knives would be perfect for chopping up apples whenever I make apple pie!
I would love to have this to give as a gift!
I’d love this knife set because I am currently using hand-me-down mismatched knives that my in-laws gave to my husband and I when we moved away for college (10 years ago!). It would be so nice to have knives that match and are SHARP.
I love to cook and have a really old crappy set. I would love to make fajitas, omelets. Stew. etc..
I would LOVE new knives! Mine are horrible.
Good knives make all the difference!
I cut everything with a steak knife! It would be nice to have a real knife set and learn how to use appropriate knives for each kitchen task! LOL
