Gordon Ramsay

Once the temps start to dip and you start getting the cooking itch again, you'll pull out your scratched-up pans and think, "Man, I should have upgraded to HexClad while it was on sale." Well, that would be right now. If you're ready to exchange your current set for one that's durable, easy to clean, cooks evenly and looks great, I suggest snagging these Gordon Ramsay-approved during Amazon's October Prime Day. The celebrity chef says this kitchenware "cooks to absolute, utter perfection." If the Great Gordo's endorsement isn't persuasive enough, know that there are a variety of nonstick sets from HexClad at Amazon on sale for up to 30% off.

What sets these pans apart is their hybrid construction, which combines the best qualities of stainless steel, cast iron and nonstick for a one-of-a-kind product that, according to Ramsay, "is highly versatile and cooks exceptionally well." They're made of aluminum sandwiched between stainless steel for expert heat conduction and distribution, and their nonstick interiors make them a breeze to clean. Plus, the signature hexagonal etching helps encourage browning. So, what are you waiting for? Let's get cookin'!

AmazonHexClad Damascus Steel Knife Set, 7 Pieces$279$349Save $70

Not only will this stunning knife set elevate the look of your kitchen, it'll also make chopping vegetables a joy, thanks to the 67 layers of Damascus steel making up the blades. You'll get an 8-inch chef’s knife, 5-inch utility knife, 3.5-inch paring knife, 8-inch serrated bread knife and 9-inch honing steel to keep things sharp, along with a beautiful magnetic walnut block to display everything on.

"This knife set is gorgeous!" shared an impressed slicer. "The magnetic hold inside the wood block is strong and can hold additional knives beyond just the set of six. We have the Hexclad pans, too, and love those, as well. I’m seriously obsessed with the beauty and quality of these knives and the dark green wood handles. It’s been decades since I last cut myself with a knife. Warning—Be careful, these are incredibly sharp and cut with ease."
