Once you've worked all day to get the perfect Turkey and all the fixings just the way you want them,  you bring them to the table and then sadly realize you will need to use an old kitchen knife and a big serving fork... busted, that really takes the wow out of the prep! I learned my lesson, after my last thanksgiving boo boo, I raced out get a carving set. I realized that it should be a good quality set because it will have to last and look good thru decades of holiday meals. Amongst all of the mediocre sets out there I was so happy to find a good quality set for much less than I thought I would have to pay. Zwilling is synonymous with quality so I feel very lucky and proud to have this set in my serving drawer!
