Great blog! I found it while searching for reviews on my latest impulse buy. Alas, I succumbed to the sirens call of life-time-guarantee, never needs sharpened, surgical steel blades. ….the fact that they threw in the spiral potato peeler, or “organic slinky maker” as my demo lady said, didn’t hurt.

To be honest, I was planning on purchasing a few new knives this weekend, so I think this was a good deal. I would have spent much more on comparable knives at the specialty store. Besides, it’s kinda cool to be the only person I know with a set of knives that can saw frozen moose bones in half, then go on to slice paper thin tomatoes.

I have to say, this was such a surreal experience. I felt like I was on a TV commercial- there were cameras, screens, and a laser light projector. And people got a little intense to get the free stuff! Somewhere in the middle- around the time Jaci described people taking off, I did feel the urge to escape. I wanted to stay mostly for the blogging potential, and I had to firmly resolve to myself that I WOULD NOT BUY ANYTHING! I have to say, without that firm resolve, I think I may have purchased the knives just because of how she swept up the crowd.

With my resolve in hand, I was able to resist, and actually because of that, I was truly surprised at how many people actually purchased the knife set. They got a lot for $30 bucks, sure, but the pitch was really effective!

I had that happen to me and I bought the knives. But, before you judge me, they are the best knives I have ever owned!
