April 3, 2010 - Dinner Impossible

I got to see one of my knives featured on Dinner Impossible on Food Network this week and got to see it go through a pirate woman's fingers. You may have seen the French Trade Chef's Knifeon my gallery page.

In the Pirate Peril episode it was used by Scarlet Jai, who was one of Chef Robert Irvine's sous chefs. She made it about halfway through the show before she sliced into the tips of two of her fingers with the knife. She was pulled off the set while they bandaged her up and said she was impressed with the knife because it didn't even hurt when it cut her.

As soon as they got her bandaged up she was back on the set chopping the next things on her board. The cameras closed in for a couple close ups of her working the blade and show my logo front and center. Here's a clip of her at work.
