A Meh-rathon of Sweet Meh-mories

This is a food storage container. You either know what that is, or can jump in the forum to ask other people about it.

Why aren’t we giving you more info? Well, we weren’t sure what to write for the Meh-rathon so we decided to look at some past Meh write-ups for inspiration. (You can find a random one here, if you want.) Unfortunately, all that did was make us nostalgic and maybe a little teary-eyed. And then the boss was all “Where’s the write-ups, writer dude?” and we panicked and… uhh… Please enjoy this classic write-up about an entirely different product! Also, feel free to share in the forum if you find one you liked or forgot about or missed entirely.


Can I level with you here: I’m just not much a knife guy. I have a set of good kitchen knives and that’s about it. I open boxes with my keys cut through frustrating packaging with a pair of scissors. I don’t mean any judgment. I’m just being honest. The problem is, I have to write about this knife, and I can’t just say, “Uh, I don’t know? It’s fine, probably?”

Or so I thought…

Then I went to do some research on Amazon and saw a question about what material was used to make the pivot washers and how thick the blade is. The first answer reads as follows:

Sorry, this was a gift for someone in Arizona so I can’t answer your question. I can only say that the knife is substantial!

Wait, seriously? This is allowed? Admitting that you don’t know the answer… counts as an answer?! Well then friends, I’ve got some great news: I can answer all the questions you have about this 2-Pack of C.R.K.T. Ruger Go-N-Heavy Compact VEFF Serrated Knives! Let’s do it!

So, how thick is the blade?

Great question! I’d guess that it’s probably about the same as other knives like it, although it could be thicker. But even then, it wouldn’t be too much thicker, because that would be weird, right?

I’m reading that it has a “stonewashed drop-point blade.” That sounds intense. What kind of stuff can you use it for?

I bet it would be pretty good at cutting through most stuff you’d use a knife like this for, but I don’t feel comfortable naming specific stuff because I’ve never used one. I will say this, though: there’s a good chance it can cut through butter. And an even better chance if the butter has been left out of the fridge for a little while.

Was it designed by Bill Harsey?

Sure was! As to who Bill Haresay is, lol, idk! I would venture to guess he does something in the knife industry.

One reviewer says that it is 11.8" long when it’s extended. Is that longer than other knives?

Not sure. It is definitely not as long as a foot, because a foot is 12". With that being said, another reviewer posted a photo of it next to another knife and a tape measurer, if that helps. It is bigger than the other knife, but not the tape measurer (which is good, because those things can get really long).

Wow! This is so easy! It’s great to finally realize how much a knife expert I really am! Thanks Amazon question answerer, for showing me the way.

(But real talk, if you’re a knife-head and you’ve got thoughts on this knife, help a copywriter out, won’t you?)
