Usps is cheapest and goes through postnord meaning you might not have to pay the government their share.
I declare "kitchen tools" when shipping outside US. USPS is the easy button.
If that contributes to the OP's question:
When from outside the EU, in terms of applicable fees/taxes german customs hasn't proved sensible for the question of gift/kitchen tool in my experience.
Be it sent with usps or other.

Thanks again for the tips, everyone. I'll plan on using USPS/postnord and labeling "Kitchen tool."
What should I do when it comes to declaring a value and insurance? I would like to stay within the limits of the law, but also minimize potential duties for the recipient. The true retail value is approximately 500 USD.

I'll make you a sponsor offer you can't refuse...
When it's a purchase there's always the 'trick' of creating 2 paypal invoices, one with the bulk of the value and a smaller one. Then put the smaller value on the package and the buyer can then show the 'cheap' paypal invoice when collecting. Not sure how this'd work out with insurance if it ever gets lost of damaged though.
