When You Watch Late Night TV, You Buy Stupid Shit

April 2nd, 2009 by Barry Freed · 3 Comments

Ladies and gentlemen, I have often thought I was above the “As Seen On TV” craze. I watch the late night infomercials and think: who would buy that junk? Well, I’ve fallen victim to Cutlery Corner. Cutlery Corner is all about selling ridiculous knives. And whenever I get a chance I watch, as the host, Tom O’Dell of the Tom O’Dell insanity hour is just amazing. And he got me.

The other night I was watching when I heard about the “Wake Up! Special”. It involved 9 knives for under $40. So I bought it. And after that, I saw the most beautiful family heirloom of all time, the hoof knive. Here they are:

Three weird blue knives that apparently I need.

The My First Sony of knives.

Dude, a knife with wolves on it. Who can say no?

Two “sure grip” knives.

The big dog. This is a survival knife. Like you didn’t know.

Now here we go, ladies and gentlemen. A piece that will be given from generation to generation. The deer hoof knife.

Yep, it’s a dagger with imitation deer fur on the shaft.

Just look at the detail.

And that’s the most beautiful part…the end. It’s shaped like a hoof. So this is just about the most intimidating thing you could ever show a deer before stabbing it in the brain….deer fur, a picture of a deer running, and something that imitates its own feet. It would just look amazing above any mantle.

    Ahh, this is what you were talking about when I came up to visit last weekend? Its just about as classy as that brass plate etching you did of the lion’s head. Well done, sir.

    The hoof knife totally reminds me of The Auction show in your hometown! I clearly remember watching one night when they were selling various items featuring Native Americans and wolves etched into them. Classic!
