    Afternoon all

    I have an SOS - any suggestions greatfully received.

    This morning I dropped the C bomb and asked for the Christmas lists for my 2 eldests.

    Eldest son has asked for a knife set in a block and a saucepan set - OMG I have no idea where to start looking - if anyone has any ideas please.

    There is no set budget but obviously not OTT eg Le Cruset - GF is very dainty and petite so I dont think she could manhandle cast iron anyway.
    They both cook from scratch most days of the week, 2 young trendy twenty somethings - possibly pans with glass lids and possibly things that go from stove top to oven.

    I had a look at Joseph knives but they are OMG price so maybe the next level down.

    But he has now sent me a picture of baccarak knife set from a US website at 99 dollars !!!!

    I have my saucepans prestige with copper bottom but not wood handle as mil had some and burnt the handle:rotfl:- ive had mine ummm gosh 40years next year they go in the dishwasher and still look like new :)
    we also bought prestige for DS +DIL. but theirs have glass lids and no copper bottom, these are now 7 years old and still as new. I remember I got these for Debenhams.
    ...but I don't like prestige frying pan or wok

    What is it with buyers on ebay? I have an expensive item for sale, and say no paypal as it is for collection. So they buy it, then say they need to pay by credit card!
    Edit: Hnmmm, paypal gift might work.

    Have you got a Homesense nearby, they are TK Maxx but for home stuff, not nearly as overwhelming!
