The Buck Travelmate – Everyday Carry Cutlery

Buck travelmateEveryone that knows me and this blog knows there are two things that really catch my attention: Everyday Carry Cutlery and Nutella Spreaders. You can imagine how excited I was to see this new piece from Buck.

First off, it isn’t a pocket everyday carry but definitely something to have in the backpack or picnic basket. The 4.87 inch serrated blade (9.87 inches with handle) is made of 410HC stainless steel and perfect for cutting bread and spreading delicious Nutella. Then there is the fork which has a bottle opener, can opener, flathead screwdriver and barbecue grill scraper. Could you ask for more? One last thing is the antimicrobial injection molded sheath for storage and carry. It is covered by Buck’s Forever Warranty and it’s dishwasher safe.

Henckel’s Cheese Set

henckel cheese knifeThere is a running punchline to any joke in our house: “I like cheese”. The joke is that it isn’t a punchline or a good way to end a story but very much a clear statement of fact. Indeed, blessed are the cheese makers.

But enough of cheesy jokes, let’s look at the Henckel cheese set. This five piece set of cheese delivery cutlery (that is counting the wooden serving board) includes 4 cheese knives for cutting hard cheeses and spreading. And also a classic two-pronged fork for serving cheese as using fingers is not polite. Featuring the famous Henckel lifetime warranty and 18/10 stainless steel  that is dishwasher safe. I would recommend a good treatment of food grade oil on the handles and cutting board occasionally.

Perfect for Sunday mornings with toast soldiers.

Sink Mounted Cutlery Cleaner

How many times have I had to type the words “not dishwasher safe” in this blog? Too many. But here is a handy little gadget to help with the hand washing.

This cutlery cleaner uses suction cups to attach to the side of your sink and non-scratch bristles to cleanup that dirty cutlery. Kind of works like a golf ball washer. There has been complaints that the suction cups don’t stick well or hold up to the action of running the cutlery through it. The trick I’ve found in these situations (especially with stainless steel sinks) is to make sure the sink is very clean and then attach the suction cup with a little dish soap and then let dry over night. Works like a charm.
