Before there was Vince and the "Slap Chop".
And The Rotato
And The Showtime Rotisserie.
And The Ped-Egg.
And The Snuggie...
.
There was The Ginsu!!!
First introduced in 1978, it was the predecessor to ALL Info-Mercials!
It could slice food paper thin, and still cut thru metal.
And NEVER need sharpening!
As you can see mine still works GREAT after 30 years!!
Peace...!!!

oh, and is anyone else as disturbed by vince as i am? he's just uber creepy.
i won a ginsu knife once at a trade show...i still have in case i ever need to put new gutter in and it does not fit...and needs a trim.
You're bringing back memories that I am enjoying. Thank you, friend.
I'm sorry to say I remember the Ginsu knife commercials.
I used to have some Ginsu knives. Don't have 'em any more, but that's okay. I don't have much metal that needs cutting these days.:)
I just can't get past the second Ped-Egg picture. OMG, and I thought I had dry feet!
ACK it's that old? And I remember it
thanks for making me feel so old.
I want that vegetable peeler!!
The veg peeler looks cool - have you got one?
I had the pedegg commercial, it turns my stomach and my podiatrist says it can call real damage to your feet! :0
I think about one in four of those gizmos are any good....
I remember the Ginsu knife commercials!
for some reason the pics of the pedi-egg are not showing...I think that is a good thing! :D
Never owned a Ginsu...but that ceramic knife I see advertised has me captivated!!
Hi Galen!!
I am just as disturbed about Vince as Lime is. He totally gives off a creepy vibe!!

cool stuff!
Heck, I remember all the various and sundry Ronco infomercials from back when I was a kid. And don't even get me started on K-tel. . .
I had one of those! Actually, now that I think of it, I still do. And I´ve never sharpened them! :-)
Eugh! That lady looks like she has some major foot warts! I know because I have too... and then I got this cheese grater thing, and I was able to really get in there and douse the bastards with Compound W! Worked like a charm. Thanks, cheese grater thing!
And don't forget the Bass-O-Matic!
Have you ever watched the slap-chop
commercial/infomercial? I swear to you, the guy adamantly declares,
"YOU'LL LOVE MY NUTS!"
