Halloween is one week away, and the pumpkins are already on porches across the country. If a kitchen knife is still doing your carving, a proper kit can make the job safer and the faces a lot sharper. Here are five pumpkin carving kits that Canadians are buying on Amazon.ca right now, based on the listings, prices and customer reviews we read on Oct. 24.

Delivery matters this week. Several listings below showed delivery before Halloween, but dates change by postal code and seller, so check the date on each page before you order.
