Oh geez, knives like those are terrible!  There’s no guard, so if you’re cutting and you slip, that’s a sharp, sharp blade.  That camera is too cute though!

If giving knives, you have to ask the couple to “pay” you for them.  A penny or nickle suffice.  It is bad luck to give knives as a gift.  (There’s my Italian superstitious background rearing its head)

The cost for the panini maker is listed at $7.  That’s a typo.

Don’t buy someone anything for their kitchen that isn’t registered.  My bf’s dad loves to send us kitchen stuff we will never use or already have - from blenders to knife sets.  ESPECIALLY if they actually cook.  We just return it and buy stuff we’ll actually use, and it’s pretty much never something that could get blindly guessed by someone who is totally clueless as to how we eat/cook/use our kitchen. 

Besides, who needs clunky gadgets that only serve one purpse (i.e. things that can be made with existing kitchen tools, like the egg cooker and the panini - are you SERIOUS!?).

If you’re looking for a gift a couple can REALLY use, do what we did when the last couple-friends of ours got married: CASH.  Or gift certs to a store you know they have near them and can find useful things at, like BB&B;.
