………………? Rostfrei

I have two (2) Knives Rostfrei say to them, one a Victorinox Swiss Army knife, which my brother brought me a recent trip Ukraine, the other is a knife that looks like this: Unless there cgi.ebay.com/ROSTFREI-STAINLESS-STEEL-57-8-CLOSED-LEATHER-SHEATH_W0QQitemZ260260997692QQcmdZViewItem a timber holding pin on the sides, instead of two. Then I wondered if Rostfrei makes a good knife and what is there affiliation with Victorinox, are the same company? Any information would be appreciated. Thank you. Swiss army knife is real, says Officier Suisse, on one side of the main table, and Victorinox, stainless Rostferi on the other.

Rostfrei? so I guess it is ur brother succeeded in Ukraine, which is another name for stainless steel. Like the first man said that actually means free of oxidation. but because it was another country would like to stick with it, I collect knives and others like it do not come by often

cananyone tell me how to set the h700 blue tooth headset from motorola up for paring lost manual need help?

motorola H700 blue tooth headset manual lost need manual or info on how to pare the headset to a phone please very desperate
thanks

Charge it first.. then turn the bluetooth on in your phone thru the menu.. this is different for all phones. It should go something like: Menue-Settings-Connection- Bluetooth-Setup. Go to the Power setting and turn it to On.

Put the headset in Pairing mode:
1. Turn headset off (boom closed – no lights)
2. Press and hold the call button.. for 4-5 seconds. The indicator light should now be purple. Release the call button and immediately open the boom. The light should stay steady purple.
If not steady purple… start over with #1 and try again.

Go back to your phone and tell it to look for devices… Should be something like: Menue-Settings-Connection- Bluetooth-Handsfree-Look for Devices.

It should find the H700. Select OK or Yes to pair your headset to the phone.

Enter the PASSKEY 0000
Select OK.

When the light changes from purple to flashing blue.. you are done!

Set Fire To The Third Bar E&B paring

For paring, peeling, garnishing, or any job where precisely controlled cuts are required this 3-pc. Paring Knife Set has you covered. Set Includes: 3-in. Spear Point Paring Knife 2.75-in. Birds Beak Peeling Knife 3-in. Santoku Paring Knife Typical stamped knives are punched out like a cookie cutter. Wusthof Silverpoint II knives are laser cut. This intricate manufacturing process is superior to others as it is more precise and leaves the knives with less distortion. The Silverpoint II knives use the same steel that is used in our other more expensive knives. Wusthof uses a special blend of German steel throughout the whole length of the knife. The ingredients of this steel are proudly etched on each blade. Wusthof not only uses the best materials to make a fine knife, but it is also crucial that each blade is precisely tempered. This tempering allows the knife to hold its edge for an extremely long time, yet can be maintained in your home kitchen without the need to be sent away for maintenance. Located in the cutlery capital of the world, Solingen Germany, the Wusthof factory history goes back as far as 1814 when the company was listed with the duchy of berg. To this day, the company remains family owned. Each step is performed to exacting standards by skilled German workers aided by the most modern, computer-guided equipment. It is this balance of German technology and old world hand craftsmanship that is the secret of how each Wüsthof knife is created. Known the world-over for its unique and uncompromising quality, our unique compound angle is not seen in many knives. This angle tapers from the spine of the knife to the edge to allow for a sturdy, yet extremely sharp edge while it also tapers from the bolster to the tip to give the knife strength as well as flexibility.

While I’m away on my imaginary vacation, I’m leaving the pantry stocked with posts from Exit 51 that would have been part of the Flashback Friday series. The following originally appeared on 7/29/09 at Exit 51.

Sharp

We have accumulated an odd assortment of knives here in our kitchen.  Some were wedding gifts.  Others were random purchases.  We’ve even inherited a couple that are probably almost as old as I am.  My grandfather was a meat cutter and every so often some of his A&P work knives would find their way home with him.    After he passed away, two of those work horses found their way to our house.  Funny how that happens.

I wouldn’t say that I have any one favorite knife.  They are all good for different things.  The 10 inch chef’s knife is the only thing I’ll use to cut up sweet potatoes.  But the paring knife is the best tool I have for finely dicing shallots.   Knowing how important it is to take care of your tools, I decided that it was time to have them properly sharpened.  Sure, we have a home sharpener but it’s just not the same.  Somehow, I even managed to knock a chip or two into (or out of) the blade of the 10 incher.  My home sharpener isn’t going to fix that.  No, a professional was definitely in order.

Do you know how hard it is to find someone who sharpens knives?  Even more, do you know how hard it is to find someone who sharpens knives while you wait?  I scoured the internet and there were plenty of service providers but they all involved me sending my knives to them.  I don’t know about you but I tend to use my knives almost daily so shipping them off to Arizona to be sharpened wasn’t really an option.

The topic of knife sharpening comes up fairly regularly on the Washington Post’s Home Chat.  They often recommend Stronsider’s Hardware, which is a lot closer than Arizona.  But when I called to ask about sharpening services, I was told that it takes two to three days to get the knives back.  So in addition to being without a knife, I’d have to make two round trips from Baltimore to Silver Spring.  There had to be a better solution.

And there was - Frank’s Cutlery Service.  Located in a small shop in Baltimore,  Frank does his thing for many restaurants in the area.  He’s got boxes for his commercial customers stacked by his grinding wheel.  Of the dozens of boxes, the one that caught my eye was labeled Andy Nelson.  Yeah, that Andy Nelson.  So I figured that if the folks I trust for my pulled pork bbq trust their knives to Mr. Frank, then I was in pretty good hands.

Depending on where you are, he might be a little out of the way over in Hamilton.  And his shop hours are only Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and it’s advisable to call before you head over just to make sure he’s there.  But seeing him transform my beaten up knives back into precision cutting tools was worth it.  His grinding wheel alone was impressive.  I didn’t ask but it must have been at least two feet in diameter and two inches thick.  Of solid stone.

Best of all, I got to see a skilled craftsman in action.  It was the best $14 dollars I could have spent.
