Snag a colorful set of Cuisinart knives for just $13 (Update: Deal expired)

You may not know how bad your knives have become until you get your hands on a freshly sharpened blade. If you've been hacking away with a drawer full of dull knives, you can fix the issue in a hurry and for very little money. A snazzy set of six Cuisinart kitchen knives with matching blade guards is on sale at Amazon for just $13, down from $50.

This isn't a high-end set by any stretch, but if it's a quick fix you're after or basic blades for a budding chef, second home or RV, this set should do the trick and it's within a few bucks of its all-time low price.

Each comes with its own protective blade guard to keep them sharp (six knives plus six guards being a "12-piece set"), even in the dreaded drawer. These ceramic-coated knives from trusty kitchen brand Cuisinart get very solid marks in buyer reviews, with new owners loving their sharpness (definitely a plus for knives) but also their comfort as you hold them.
