August 24 - National Knife Day

Happy National Knife Day! On August 24, today is the day to appreciate any and all of the knives that folk use on a daily basis. Today is a celebration of this marvelous tool that has been with humans since the dawn of time. 

The evolution of knives has been a remarkable feat – from knives made of bone, stone andflint, to modern creations using titanium, bronze, iron and steel.  

Nobody can deny that the knife is one of man’s most useful tools – for cooking, eating, fishing, hunting, and not to forget the oh so handy Swiss Army knife. 

To make the most of National Knife Day, why not test your knife chopping skills in the kitchen, or buy that knife set you’ve always wanted.  

Invite family and friends over to compare and swap knives, or get together to clean and sharpen your knives. 

Below are 7 Things Every Knife Person Should Does To Celebrate 'National Knife Day': 

#1. Blow off work to binge watch nutnfancy YouTube videos. 

#2. When a loved one points out how sharp your knife is, you say: “the most dangerous knife is a dull knife” even if you’re not really sure if that’s true. 

#3. Tell your non-knife friends all about what the mail man delivered last week. 

#4. Change your pocket clip orientation. 

#5. Create a new BladeForums account just to start a ‘What’s the best knife under $100?’ thread. 

#6. Go to BladeHQ.com and buy a knife [sponsored]. It’s National Knife Day! 

#7. Cut stuff. 

Then there’s nothing like having a cake and enjoying a slice by the knife. 

And instead of wishing one another to have a nice day, why not just say: “Have a knife day!”

What kind of knife do you prefer to use?
