Orthodox Icon of Holy and Great Martyr Theodore Tiron or Theodore of Amasea Tyro or Tyron or Tiro or Teron.

Comemmorated February 17th.

Great Martyr Theodore the Recruit (Tiron) came from Amasia in Pontus and was a Roman legionary at the time of Maximian's great persecution (c. 303) He was commaned by his superior to offer incense to the idos and refused. St Theodore firmly confessed his faith in Christ the Savior in a loud voice. He was accused of setting a pagan temple on fire and was brought to the governor where St Theodore boldly and fearlessly confessed his faith, for which he was subjected to new torments and condemned to burning.

The martyr Theodore climbed onto the fire without hesitation, and with prayer and gave up his holy soul to God. Unharmed by the fire, the body of St Theodore was buried in the city of Euchaita, not far from Amasium. His relics were afterwards transferred to Constantinople. Fifty years after the death of St Theodore, the emperor Julian the Apostate (361-363), knowing that the Christians sanctified the first week of Lent by fasting and prayer, he ordered to have all of the food set out for sale in the markets sprinkled with the blood of animals sacrificed to the gods. In this way no one in the city would escape the contagion of idolatry.

St Theodore appeared in a dream to Archbishop Eudoxius, ordering him to inform all the Christians that no one should buy anything at the marketplaces, but rather to eat cooked wheat with honey (kolyva). Thus the Christian people were protected from the stain of idolatry. The Orthodox Church annually celebrates the holy Great Martyr Theodore the Recruit on the first Saturday of Great Lent.

On Friday evening, at the Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts following the prayer at the ambo, the Canon to the holy Great Martyr Theodore, composed by St John of Damascus, is sung. After this, kolyva is blessed and distributed to the faithful. The celebration of the Great Martyr Theodore on the first Saturday of Great Lent was set by the Patriarch Nectarius of Constantinople (381-397). We pray to St Theodore for the recovery of stolen articles.

Okay for the price
Size: 6 Pcs, Color: Stainless Steel
I looked a long time for a quality looking set for a budget price. I'm thankful that this is an option for the price range. Especially if you are on a budget, this is a good option. I know for the budget, you won't get the top-tier quality. However, when I got it, I wasn't too impressed by the quality. Though I'm thankful for the price, I felt this looked a little too cheap. The block was also far too flimsy. I was worried about removing and replacing the knives because the block "frayed" quite a bit. There were "crumbs" of block over the top that fell off the knife after you pulled it out. So I was very worried about touching the knife at all because I was worried about scratching or damaging the knives themselves. The knives themselves, though, I wasn't too worried about. They were the exact style I was looking for minus the color. I was looked for a more black or black-wash stainless steel like the ones I have now. I returned it the next day so I didn't try it out or take pictures. In the future, though, I'm now more willing to pay more for better quality.

This knife set offers great value for the price
Size: 6 Pcs, Color: Stainless Steel
I recently purchased this knife set, and overall, it has been a solid addition to my kitchen. Right out of the box, the knives felt well-balanced and comfortable to hold, which made a noticeable difference during meal prep. The handles provide a secure grip, even when my hands are slightly wet, and the weight distribution gives a sense of control that’s especially helpful for more precise cuts. In terms of performance, the blades are impressively sharp and handle a variety of tasks with ease—from slicing vegetables to cutting through tougher meats. I’ve used them regularly for a few weeks now, and they’ve maintained their edge better than I expected. That said, like most knives, they do benefit from occasional honing to keep them at peak performance. The set itself is versatile, covering all the essentials you’d need in a typical kitchen. The included block (if applicable) keeps everything organized and easily accessible, while also adding a clean, modern look to the countertop. One minor drawback is that the knives require careful hand washing and drying to prevent any potential rusting or wear over time. They’re not the kind of set you’d want to toss into the dishwasher if you want them to last. Overall, this knife set offers great value for the price. It’s a reliable option for both everyday cooking and more involved meal prep, especially for home cooks looking to upgrade their kitchen tools without overspending.

Affordable knives, horrible knife block
Size: 14 Pcs, Color: Red, Size: 14 Pcs, Color: Red
Knives are sharp and aren’t super rust resistant, but they get the job done. The knife block however, is horrible. It wasn’t sanded down or polished, so wood shavings can get into the grooves of the knife whenever you insert or take out the knives from the block.
