How to Sell Engraved Kershaw Knives to a Skeptic

Do you know anyone who is not convinced of the value of engraved Kershaw knives? Here is a fool-proof list of methods for your presentation:

  • Pick out a sample of your favorite Kershaw knife, and let him try it.
  • If that doesn’t work, tell him that the Scallion 1620 is an assisted-open knife. When you move the flipper, the internal spring opens the blade the rest of the way, quickly.
  • Tell him most of the the Kershaw knives are made in the USA.
  • Show him that his laser engraved logo will never wear off.
  • Show him the genuine Kershaw gift box that comes with all the knives.
  • Let him see the removable pocket clip that comes with most Kershaw knives.

Good luck. I hope these tips work for you!

How To Take Care Of Your Fruit Knife

Besides the normal maintenance that you would give any pocket knife, here are some tips specifically for your fruit knife.

  • Wash it or rinse it thoroughly, to get rid of fruit residue. The acid content of oranges, lemons, tomatoes and some other fruits would etch the stainless steel.
  • Dry it to remove all traces of the rinse water. This will prevent some steel parts like the spring and pins from rusting. Even some grades of stainless steel can experience some degree of rusting.
  • Oil it with cooking oil instead of non-edible oil.
  • Store it in a clean environment, so you won’t contaminate your fruit next time you use it.
  • Use a knife-friendly cutting board. Never cut on a ceramic board, because it would dull your blade immediately.

As with any other knife, here are some general tips:

  • Keep it sharp. The sharper it is, the easier it cuts. Instead of using a stone, I prefer the type of sharpener that has two steel wheels.  That way I don’t get any stone grindings contaminating the works. Then rinse and wipe the knife off before use.
  • Never use your knife as a pry bar or hammer.
  • Keep it in the pouch when not in use. This assures it won’t get contaminated or misplaced.

Your fruit knife will last longer if you take good care of it. Thanks to “Sharpening By Dave” for some information in this article.

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for This American-Made Ice Cream Scoop

Ice Cream Scoop for National Frozen Yogurt Day
The Best Ice Cream Scoop for National Frozen Yogurt Day

Are you a die-hard ice cream fan? Or will you, on occasion, settle for frozen yogurt? Since the 1970’s, people have been eating fro-yo, the close cousin of ice cream. While ice cream is made up of a mixture of milk and cream, frozen yogurt is made of (you guessed it) yogurt, milk, and cream. The addition of yogurt to the recipe makes it a lower fat, lower calorie alternative to ice cream, with perhaps a little less guilt as well.

What flavor will you choose today, on National Frozen Yogurt Day? Cookie dough, strawberry, pistachio, chocolate or vanilla? Maybe add a few toppings and make your own delicious fro-yo sundae. Are you drooling yet? But the only way you’ll be able to scoop it into your bowl is with a reliable American-made ice cream scoop.

Yum!!

Are Engraved Buck Knives Warranted For Life?

Best Knife Warranty:

Buck Knives, Inc. USA has one of the best warranties in the business. They call it

Broken Buck Knife--Engraved Buck Knives

the Buck Forever Warranty. It is basically a lifetime warranty against defects in

material and workmanship. They will repair or replace the knife, at their option. However, if your logo engraved Buck knives are at issue, then ask Buck to repair, instead of replace. Then your logo won’t be thrown away. The same goes for any other covered Buck knife that has sentimental value. At your request, they will repair it the best they can, so that you aren’t faced with a new knife instead.

Here are the exceptions to the warranty:

Damage due to your misuse of the knife. Never use a knife as a pry bar, screw driver, or chisel or hammer.

Bonus for those who mistreated their knife:

If you happened to misuse your Buck knife, not all is lost. The factory can probably repair it for you for just a few dollars. They can even sharpen, polish, and adjust it for you for just a few dollars, too. If it is beyond repair, they offer to give you a deep discount on a new Buck pocket or hunting knife.
