I Saw This
...and just had to say something. When you don't know what to buy the person who has everything...
...then save your money. Nothing is better than this.
If you have $14.95 plus shipping to blow and simply must have one, boy! Does Williams Sonoma have your number.

As one who has nearly chopped off several fingers, this isn't that bad of an idea ;)

With my personal degree of dexterity, it's all I can do to hold the knife. The last thing I need is trying to balance a cutting shield on the other hand at the same time as holding the whatever-it-is I'm cutting.
This picture isn't as bad as the one in the catalogue ~ they're 'slicing' scallions in that and it looks like a colossal, awkward waste of time.

It is, Sis. All you need are a few large thimbles to prevent nicks. (If you take off a finger at the knuckle, then you're careless enough to overcome any safety device anyway.)

Be mean and buy them a mandolin... no more fingers at all!
