If ever there was a year that we were all excited to see come to a close, it would be 2020. With social and political unrest everywhere you go, it’s about time we press the reset button.
Your customers and employees will have a chuckle if you get them all pocket knives engraved with “So Long, 2020.”
In days like these, it’s important to keep our nation unified. What better way than to refresh our minds with a little history lesson about the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance? After all, today is a national holiday celebrating this special oath.
Did you know…
The first American pledge of allegiance (different from the one we recite today) was written by Captain George Thatcher Balch during the Civil War. It goes:
“We give our heads and hearts to God and our country; one country, one language, one flag!”
The pledge we all know today was based on one written by Francis Bellamy in 1892. It goes:
“I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all”
Congress formally adopted Bellamy’s pledge in 1942, and added the words “Under God” in 1954.
These company logo knives will help you and your customers celebrate this special day:
Overindulgence is usually the path we all take during these holiday months. Today is no exception, as today is Pumpkin Pie Day. Might as well add a dollop of ice cream on top of your slice too, why not? You deserve it.
Well, today is Christmas Eve- I’m sure if you have children in your home they are eagerly awaiting Santa Claus! Lay out some milk and cookies for him (plus snacks for the reindeer!), and then go tuck your babies in and finish wrapping your gifts!
Have a very Merry Christmas!
(And we hope tomorrow you’ll be lucky enough to receive any of these special logo knives!)
When you hear the word “fruit,” usually the typical names pop to mind: apple, banana, pear, orange, peach, etc. But this month you’ll need to think outside the box, as it is Root Vegetable and Exotic Fruits Month. Have you ever heard (or tasted) any of these?
Kumquat
Durian
Pomelo
Mangosteen
Chom Chom
You can use a fruit knife to taste-test some of these fruits (although some have a hard outer shell, so you might need something a bit stronger!)
I’m sure we’ve all been in the situation where you’ve run out of time to shop for a gift and tonight is the company Christmas gift exchange.. what do you do?!
Quick- find something new and unused in your house to regift! (But I’m sure you won’t grab your engraved Kershaw knives to regift- those are way too valuable and useful!)
There is much debate in the brownie world about what the proper texture should be. Is the best brownie…
Fudgy
Cakey
Today is National Brownie Day, so you can choose your preferred texture! And if you want, you can add frosting to the top, or any nuts to the batter. Make sure to grab your American-Made CutleryMini Server to cut them up (if you’re willing to share!)
Ninjas are known for being stealthy, fast, sneaky, strong, nimble, and quiet. Traditionally their weapons of choice were tools you would normally find in the farms of Japan, in order to maintain their disquise.
But I bet in modern times (and especially today, on International Ninja Day) any of these engraved tools would be a ninja’s best sidekick, with their countless abilities and hidden talents:
The holiday season is always a time to reflect on how you can give back to those less fortunate and to give thanks for all of the blessings you have received this year. Today is the National Day of Giving, commonly known as #GivingTuesday. It’s a day to donate your time, items, or money to charities that are meaningful to you.
Pocket knives engraved with #GivingTuesday are a great way to show the people you work with, and the community around you, that your company cares.
Last week we celebrated Thanksgiving in a much different way than in years past. Maybe with fewer friends & family, but with (hopefully) just as many yummy dishes.
Last week was also National Cake Day, but now it is time for pies to take center stage: It’s National Pie Day!
Pumpkin, pecan, apple, cherry, coconut cream? You can’t go wrong, unless (somehow) you forgot your American-Made Cutlerypie server. Silly you- don’t forget it next time!
