Ohhh, Fisker the Car company not Fiskar the scissor company.
Fiskars the blade company also makes Gerber products. The knives, not the Baby food.
Babies can eat knives if they're brave enough
You can eat anything, once.
"It's not a war crime the first time."
Turns out knives you can eat a surprising number of before it kills you
Account of a Man Who Lived Ten Years, after Having Swallowed a Number of Clasp-Knives
Have you met babies? They'll eat anything, period. Except their food. That's half the challenge in parenting.
Yes, then they become toddlers and anything besides pizza or chicken nuggets is you trying to poison them
Anything's a baby if you're brave enough?
Amidoinitright?
Knives, the cutting implement? Not The Knife, the Swedish electronic band?
and Gerber the knife brand used to be an absolute seal of quality but now the majority of their items are cheap chinese-manufactured garbage. Only the top dollar knives are still any good. It's quite sad really.
Everything has worsened, Leatherman isn't the company it used to be either.
It's Fiskars
I bet they'd make a sharp looking car
Really cutting edge.
Stop with the puns... We get the point
I get that we're chopping it up here, but can we cut back on the puns?
Scissor me timbers!
I love the real slice of life feeling you get reading through this stuff.
In the irradiated wasteland after the climate wars there will be a blacksmith somewhere stamping Fiskars on the crude sheers he uses to shave his two headed sheep.
Then he will be zapped for trademark infringement with an orbital laser operated by the space oligarchs.
TIL it's spelled Fiskar
I was pretty worried about that TBH. I don't buy them frequently but that's because they're usually good tools that last.
They also make wonderful axes and mauls I use to abuse trees and let all my anger out. A by product of this behavior is I also get to heat my home in the cold months.
Their lawn weed puller is legit also.
Phew! Close one.
