or you could buy a little engraver like this (think they're around $10-$20)
and engrave it yourself, adds that personal touch to it

All suggestions appreciated! | I'd go for a good knife. Find a 75% off sale and find him a beauty. The Bay has good sales, but generally on sets. I'd love a nice handcrafted Japanese knife.
I really don't know much about Knives. But if you know a chef they could help you out. I'd be pretty happy if I found this under the tree. http://www.cutleryandmore.com/miyabi...-knife-p129083
If he is indeed really into cooking, he may already have decent knives. Investigate to see if he has sharpening stones. They can be a little pricey, and not as exciting as a knife but if he loves to cook, nothing better then a sharp knife. So you need something to keep it sharp

Got my dad a new Honda snowblower.
Taking GF to Tofino for New Year's and got her some small gifts to open on Xmas morn.
Picked up some Pathfinder books for my brother.
Got a season pass to Butchart Gardens for my mom.
Canucks tickets for myself and my best friend.
Bought every table a pitcher of beer for my co-workers at the Xmas party.
Awaiting my usual assortment of socks, underwear, and guilt trips from those I didn't buy presents for in return ...

Seriously more of you should consider getting the GF a 302 and a T5 delivered to her place on a pallet. She'll love it, I promise!
