| SurgRN911's Full Review: Forever Sharp Platinum Series Surgical Stainless S... |
Wait … that’s not all … if you call in the next 15 minutes we will include this set of …
No, I wasn’t taken in by some infomercial on television, I bought these goods in a brick and mortar store, good old Sams Club.
I know you’ve all been there. You have a roast or ham, pretty enough to go in Good Housekeeping, but by the time you are finished hacking at it with your dull knives, why even a caveman wouldn’t eat it. My apologies to any cavemen that are offended by that remark. After buying countless knife sets and cutlery sets, I happened on this one at Sams Club.
Forever Sharp Cutlery Collection by Twin Towers Trading Company
This beautiful set of knives comes with 3 carving knives, 1 filet knife, 2 paring knives and 2 gourmet juicers. They are constructed from ‘surgical’ stainless steel and are light as a feather.
The carving knives are 13” long with an 8” cutting blade. The blade has notched air shafts which help the blade slice through your cooked item with more efficiency. The filet knife measures 11” with a 6” cutting blade. Paring knives are 6” with a 3” blade. One of the carvers has the notched end, like a fork, so it offers a dual purpose.
The blades are a glossy finish,; handles are brushed finish. The handles have a nice tapered shape and are ergonomically designed to fit your hand. They are weighted so nicely, it is no problem at all using them.
All are dishwasher safe but err on the side of caution, these babies are extremely sharp. Use your head when you are reaching into a soapy sink or clearing the dishwasher. Please keep these far out of the reach of children.
Warranty
A lifetime warranty is offered for these knives. If they are damaged, even if it is your fault, return to manufacturer and they will replace.
For questions about your product, or warranty information, contact them at 1-800-625-3777, Monday through Friday, 8am-10 pm ; Saturday 9am-5pm and Sunday, 9am-2pm.
It slices, it dices, it will even walk your dog
Well, walking the dog might be a stretch, but the product does live up to its advertisement. Of course you want to test it, just to see if they were blowing smoke up your skirt, but it works just like they say it will. You can cut right through frozen food and slice a tomato with the finest precision. I haven’t found anyone willing to let me try the cutting through bone thing yet, but if I do, I’ll let you know how that works.
As far as carving the finished product, why you could read newspaper through the slices, it was that fine. Don’t worry though, you can still carve off a big ole slab of meat as well.
The other piece of equipment not tried yet is the juicer. I’m simply not going to the trouble.
Company Information
Twin Towers Trading has been in business since 1993. They offer housewares, cookware, cleaning supplies, nutriceuticals, cosmetic items, toys, fashion jewelry, massage chairs, pillows and brushes. Most of their merchandising is done in mass, mainly through what they call retailtainment. In other words, you have some dude (or dudette) hocking these items live in stores.
If you can’t drag yourself out to a store, you can also access their website and visit their virtual store at www.twintowerstrading.com. Of course it isn’t as fun as the retailtainment, you have to entertain yourself while shopping. They offer specials all the time, many times with free shipping. Sorry folks, US and Canada only for the free shipping. They also accept all forms of payment including Pounds, Canadian dollar and Euro. You can chose the language: English, Dutch and Spanish.
Really, we’ve been super pleased with the performance of this set. As a point of interest though, I might offer this bit of advice. If your mother never told you, let me: “It is never the fault of the cook if something doesn’t perform properly, it is definitely the product.” I only mention this because ‘someone’ tried to use the paring knife to clean potatoes and complained about it. I gently offered the potato peeler to her. We ate out that night. ‘nuf said.
Many thanks to Pogomom for getting this added for me
