How Good is the Furi Gusto-Grip?

What is with these bright orange knife grips? I asked myself this question during my review of the latest Rachael Ray knives. I looked at a few sources and heres what I found out about the legendary Furi Gusto-Grip Knives.

According to www.KitchenKnifePro.com , "The Gusto-Grip line was created specifically to meet Rachael Ray’s recommendations. Rachael wanted a ‘grippier’ handle in her favorite color – ‘orange’. The distinctive orange handled knife is made with a durable synthetic rubber handle that immediately feels comfortable and secure in the hand."

Whats amazing is that they make all sorts of knives with these Gusto-Grips. For example, here is the Rachael Ray 10 piece knife set with large and small knives, all using the Gusto-Grip!

The Knife King Reviews Furi Knife Sharpeners

Furi has released two knife sharpeners that provide basic and advance sharpening properties. The first is the Tech Edge Rachael Ray professional sharpener set. This sharpener system has 3 different components to get those knives extra sharp. As I mentioned in my previous post, a sharp knife is critical to losing weight!

The second knife sharpener is the Rachael Ray OZITECH Diamond Fingers Knife Sharpener. This less expensive system is a perfect gift for any cook. Furi did a great job making this system easy to use and compact

Sharp Knives help you lose weight?

I don't know about you, but its about time I get into shape. I have been eating out way too much lately. So, starting next week, I'm on a serious diet. To get myself mentally prepared, I was reading a magazine to get motivated, and it said that buying a sharp knife is a great way to get back to eating healthy. I guess that makes sense; you will enjoy cutting up all those fruits and veggies. I mean, French fries don't need much cutting...do they?

Anyway, I heard that Rachael Ray knives are some of the sharpest out there. But the question is, which Rachael Ray Furi Knife do I buy? Should I buy the 5" East West Knife, the 7" East West Knife, or the Rachael Ray Knife Set in a bamboo box that includes both? I guess the other option is to get the Share our Strength 3 piece knife set, proceeds go to a good cause.

Oh, so many options out there. I wonder if I buy a knife block set that I'll lose more weight.

Ok, maybe that's wishful thinking. All I know is that no matter which knife set I go with, I'll be buying it at Kitchen Knife Pro.

Did you know that when you buy a Rachael Ray Knife Set (3pc set Gusto-Grip), part of the proceeds go to the Share our Strength Charity. The Share Our Strength organization is a national nonprofit that inspires and organizes individuals and businesses to share their strengths to help end hunger.

On top of helping out a great cause, these knife sets are incredibly sharp and made to last. They go along great with the Rachael Ray Knife Sharpeners

Some of the best Rachael Ray Knives are sold at the Kitchen Knife Store

Rachael Ray Knives are Sharp!

While surfing the web - I realized there are more important things than knives, but hey I'm the knife King. I love sharp metals, diamond edges or the feel of an ivory handle especially at home in my kitchen. My wife recently purchased a 3 piece bamboo knife set from the Kitchen Knife Store yesterday and brother, let me tell you... you need o buy this set.

At first I thought the orange Gusto-Grip handle would be hard to use, however Furi did a great job manufacturing these knives. So much so, that Rachael Ray was willing to sign her name. Now when slicing a pear or cutting through a thick chicken breast, I'm no longer straining...slicing my fingers in the process. When you get a chance - browse the selection of Rachael Ray Knives over at their store. You won't be disappointed.
