Do You Ulu?

Or why I am so impressed with CSN Stores.

I was browsing through the Cookware store at CSN Stores and thinking about what I needed for my kitchen. As I browsed I remembered that I have been looking for an ulu so I typed "ulu" into the Cookware Store's search bar. I really did not expect to get a hit and thought I would see "no products match your query".

You will never guess what appeared before my eyes.

LamsonSharp PRO Walnut Kitchen Necessities Ulu Knife

Once you have experienced using LamsonSharp PRO Walnut Kitchen Necessities you will have a hard time using any other brand! The look, the feel, the overall quality it has to offer, is clearly outstanding.

Specifications:
* Blade style: Ulu Knife
* Lifetime warranty
* Made in the USA
Read Lamson's Green Story HERE.
And to make things even better it was on SALE!!!

My LamsonSharp Ulu arrived yesterday and I immediately gave it a test run. I love this knife. It is super sharp and the handle has a very comfortable grip. It sliced the potato and zucchini almost effortlessly. I know I will be using my new Ulu on a regular basis in my kitchen.

Now I'm not promising you will find a Left-Handed Bacon Stretcher at the CSN Stores but you never know. The next time you are looking for something give the CSN Stores a look.

Want to know more about the origins of the ulu and see the others I have? Check back tomorrow for the rest of the story.

That's really cool looking! I might not be able to cut myself with that...I'm not allowed to go near the knives after my husband has sharpened them!

DJan said...

Wow! What a wonderful present I can give my husband, who does all the chopping and cooking around here. It's fabulous, and I've been given a review by an expert! Thank you, Judy!

Judy Sheldon-Walker said...

This definitely looks like a kitchen staple. Can I get it with a side of fried squash?

Pat said...

I love me a sharp knife! I'm the queen of sharp knives! I can't cook without one! I think I need to go browsing now!

Pat Tillett said...

That is not only cool looking, but I bet it could wack off a finger with no problem at all...

I've never seen one before I don't think--but I have heard of them. I think they were used by the Eskimos...

Glad you like yours...
Hugs,

Oh, I've seen this kind of knife before, but under a different name!! I'm having brain freeze and can't remember the name I know it by. I think it starts with an M.

Laura PARING DOWN said...

That's one serious looking knife!!!

Self Sagacity said...

Yes, yes. I love that knife. It works like a charm.

It looks to me as though everyone will need to be super nice to you from now on. I will.

That looks impressive but I'm so cack-handed I'm sure I'd never manage it ;-)
Looking forward to the next snippet of information about the ulu.

I've learnt a new word today. You should get commission for plugging.

Icy BC said...

I haven't seen one before, but it looks like something I would love to have in my kitchen..

Since now you'll be in the kitchen more, shall we have dinner in the garden?

Pam said...

How interesting, Judy. I didn't know they were called a 'ulu'. It seem to be a handy cutter.

I think I will hold on to my Pampered Chef stuff for a while still. Happy Friday! Still following along.

J,
Oh my cats I thought a Ulu was going to be a new Feline toy you know like a Ulu Wubba. MOL I crack myself up...Madi is pretty silly today her brain has been fried by all the heat in Dixie.
I mom have never heard of a Ulu. I believe I need one though as I'm known to cut myself a lot. HA In fact my daughter could probably use one too she is left handed. Her husband took her sharp knife privileges away sometime ago.
I look forward to reading more.
Happy Friday and have a lovely weekend, Head scratch to Miss Cindi Lou

never heard the word ulu before, but i do have one. it was my grandmothers and it came with a wooden bowl, the bowl and the ulu are really old. mother used it to chop onions and cabbage or anything she wanted to chop really fine. no choppers available, just arm power, the wooden bowl and the ulu. can't wait for the rest of the story. I use it to make slaw, to chop ham into ham salad, things like that, never thought of slicing with it. now i know

Looks like a knife I would really love in my kitchen! Can't wait to hear more tomorrow.

The Japanese Redneck said...

No don't have one. Probably won't. I'm terribly accident prone and don't need to invite any more injuries (or missing fingers) to myself......

Catherine said...

I do Ulu! :)

Mine is straight from The Northwest Territories - about as far North as you can get before the North Pole! I have to be very careful with it as it is very sharp and I am not too handy cutting things! Ha!

Have a Happy day!

TC said...

I thought I'd decided on a purse from CSN, now I may need a knife, decisions decisions....LOL
Probably I should get the knife but I want the purse....

Honeygo Beasley said...

Rock that knife! If Rachel Ray had her hands on that, boy oh boy, what would she, could she cook? Looks like a cook's best friend.

Ruthi said...

looks like it is more efficient in chopping veggies and meat.
