I was just setting here poking around on the web when I heard on the local evening news (Channel 6 aka Volunteer TV) that Gerber has issued a recall on "A Frame

" Knives sold nationwide, some at WallyWorld for around 12 bucks. Something about the blade falling out.......

I wonder where they were made?

Just Great!

"Hazard: During use, the back of the blade of the knife can slide past the blade support, posing a laceration hazard to consumers."

"Incidents/Injuries: Gerber has received eight reports of individuals cutting themselves while using the knife, including several individuals who required stitches."

I see the Plot here!
