Forged Cutlery

BYUSkiBum · 11-28-2007, 04:21 PM

Hi,
I just submitted my first 4 shows in 30 days and I hit the 1250 in sales, so I am really excited and I have some PC dollars to spend. I have been eyeing the santoki knife, but I wanted to see if you guys think that it works like it should. Also, I have noticed that you guys seem to refer to certain months that have certain discounts (like January being stoneware month) and I was wondering if you remember if the forged cutlery ever goes on sale, and when it does, by how much? I would like to get one now, before the sale so that I can show it off, but I also wouldn't mind waiting to get it until my 4th month when I can get it for cheaper, and use my PC dollars for my website and supplies, etc. Anyway, TIA!

The knives were the host and guest special back in August I believe it was. They were 20% off for guests, so as consultants, we can order anything at the sale price PLUS our personal discount. So, they probably won't be a special for a while. But host your own show and get one (or the whole set) for 50% off. By the way I LOVE my Santoku knife and highly recommend it. It's the one I use the most. Definitely get that one. you'll be amazed going from a so-so knife to that one.

I love the way the knife works but it is so big that I do not use it that much. I use the green santuko (that I hated b/c of the color at first) more than any of them. I wish we had a smaller version of the forged one!

The Santoku knife is fabulous! Keep it honed and you'll be very happy! We hone ours once a month.

I love this knife!!!! Did you know you can use PC dollars to pay for kit enhancement in your fourth month?

I think we should suggest to HO that a smaller version of the Santoku knife might be a high selling item!

There is always February when you can host your own show and choose any two products in the catalog for 60% so so cool!

Yes...the Santoku knife is my FAVORITE! I had been wanting one for soooo long, and then we came out with one!

Make sure you invest in the honer as well. I hone mine every time I use it (so I am in the habit and don't forget) so I always have a super sharp knife!

I am the opposite of some of you...I don't care for our smaller green santoku knife. It seems so small that I have a hard time holding it "correctly" so my wrist and hand seem to tire out. You will NOT be dissappointed if you spend some of your PC dollars on this forged knife!

BTW- you can see knife skills here: Chef Knives--How to really use them.

I agree with Kelly. I don't care for the green santoku for sort of the same reason. I like my Forged Cutlery Santoku for some things - big things. I like all the Forged Cutlery because there's a knife for every job IMO. I use the utility knife for most of my cutting. I have two, and it seems one is always dirty. If I don't feel like washing it right away, I just wipe it clean and dry with a paper towel or something and wash it when I'm washing other things.

Thanks for everyone's help...I am definetly going to get a Santoku knife, but I think that I will wait until my 4th month to make my PC dollars stretch a little further....I didn't even know that I could use them then, so that is great! Thanks so much everyone....this website is awesome and you guys are so helpful!
