Fun Shoe
Here's a question that I don't think has been addressed before (or at least I missed it)--what knives would you suggest for explicitly for gift purposes? By which I mean something that's:

- definitely stainless
- visually striking. Like damascus-style etching, nashiji finishes, nice wood handles, that sort of thing.
- able to hold an edge pretty well even if the owner maybe isn't getting it sharpened as often as they could be.
- still a decent value, so maybe not the DALSTRONG-style scam knives

This seems to keep coming up when people ask me for suggestions, and the best answer I've been able to give is to wait for a sale on Shun damascus stuff (I did buy a Shiro Kamo R2 for my parents a few years back, but those are a bit out of a lot of people's price ranges). Does anyone have a better idea?
