The smart cutters and choppers these days are using ceramic knives because they stay so sharp for so long, and who remembers to have their knives sharpened? Ours measure 7" long over all, with a deep aqua handle, a 3" blade and a sheath. Don't go into the kitchen without one. Slice, dice, chop and mince, and forget about sharpening. Like you always do.

A lovely mini-funnel, made for pouring Dad's special medicine into a hip flask, but just dandy for filling salt and pepper shakers or anything else with a little yap. Stainless steel with a 1-3/8" ID intake mouth and a 5/16" ID outlet. 1-7/8" tall OA.

These silicone hot pads double as trivets or oven mitts. Measure 7-1/8" dia x 3/16" thick with 1/4" honeycomb indentations to further dissipate heat, plus a 3/8” hole near the edge so you can hang them up. We’ll pick one in red, blue, green or orange, and you can redecorate your kitchen to match. They also double as the world’s safest frizbees.

This 4" wide plastic bulldog clip has serrated jaws to hang on tight, and a light fridge-strength magnet on the back. We’ll pick five (5) from our selection of gray, light blue or bluish-greenish-blue clips adorned with assorted misprints. You can ignore the words. You can also ignore the magnet and just use them to reseal your nacho chips, which makes them chip clips.

Georges Braque would have loved the tiny ice cubes that come out of the lid of this plastic box, but then he was a cubist. You'll like them just because they're cute. Pop (20) 15/16" cubes out of the tray, then store them underneath in the 7" x 6-1/4" x 4-1/8" plastic box.

Our hand-held knife and scissors sharpener has a pair of tungsten carbide heads pre-set at the correct angle for keeping an edge on things. Just rest the blade in the notch and pull. Pistol-grip style with a guard, in black plastic. Measures 6" x 5/8" wide, with reversible and replaceable carbide cutting heads.

If the Tin Man had been plastic, this would have been his lid, and he'd have been rust-free. Our giant plastic funnel is 9-3/4" dia with a 3-1/8" long x 15/16" ID neck. Just under 10" tall top to bottom. Could be red or green depending on which way the surplus wind blows. Hang it by the little tab with a hole on the top edge. Buy (3), get a tennis ball, and run the biggest shell game in town.

Only your trustees get mugs this nice to rattle against  the bars. Our best-ever stainless steel mug has a big handle and a series of burnished wide and narrow stripes around it, adding a particularly snazzy touch. Holds up to 14 oz, and measures 3-5/8" tall x 3-1/4" dia, with a little lip. Perfect camping, hiking or back-yarding.

No home is really complete until there's a Doctor Who salt and pepper shaker set on the table. Just over 3" tall, the pepper lives in a black Dalek and the salt lives in a lovely blue Tardis. Genuine authorized BBC products, too. Accept no counterfeit Daleks.

You get a pair of these dishwasher-safe canning funnels (so you can can-can!) for putting preserves with big lumps into jars. Measure 4-3/4" dia at the top with a 2" ID bottom.
