When you have to saw a soda can in half and then slice tomatoes so thin your in-laws will never come back . . . accept no substitutes!
I remember one commercial where they used a Ginsu knife to cut a bunch of nails and then cut a tomato lol

I think my folks had one, though its use was restricted to produce, as I recall.

Here's a link with more info on the perp =
"The man accused of killing toddler, stabbing 8 refugees, was arrested just 2 months ago
BY RUTH BROWN

July 02, 2018 03:15 PM
Updated 5 hours 34 minutes ago
The man accused of stabbing a toddler to death, along with non-fatally stabbing eight other people on Saturday, has a background ranging from sexual battery, assault, dealing drugs and spending time in a federal prison.
Timmy Kinner Jr., 30, who a prosecutor on Monday described as homeless, has known criminal records in Utah and Tennessee. Records show he was arrested as recently as April in Utah, spending three days in jail but his life of crime dates back more than a decade."
He looks mean enough to scare the hell out of Hannibal Lecter.

This is just a gateway for gun talk.

No this one was about knives. Do you think that others only bring up the shooting stories, to talk about guns?

No your just trying to pull the tired "but other things kill people too argument " so we don't have to talk about gun violence. If your going to be disingenuous at least be original.

Ah, yes.
In Japan, the hand can cut like a knife! But this method doesn't work - with a tomato.
