Summer Fun – Gadget Giveaway!

If you’ve been reading my blog a while or subscribe to my monthly newsletter you know how much I love gadgets and GIVEAWAYS!

With this summers extreme heat nothing is more refreshing than iced cold watermelon.  But have you ever tried to slice a whole one?  It’s difficult especially if you have a dull knife.  So when I laid my eyes on this fun Watermelon Knife I knew I just had to share it with my viewers.

Made by Kuhn Rikon with it’s seed shaped cut-outs, red blade and green handle – how whimsical can you get? Even with all it’s whimsy this knife is made of high carbon Japanese steel and has a non-stick coating to insure quick food release. Plus with an ergonomic handle it allows you to apply pressure without losing your grip.

At just under $25 it’s a bargain and a great gift to give to a friend as well.  Don’t take my word for it, check out this video.  The Watermelon Knife slices watermelon as though it were slicing butter – smooth and easy!

  1. My son loves watermelon! During the summer he eats it almost every day. It would be great to have a Melon Knife…It could sure make life easier for me! 🙂

  2. During the summer it seems like watermelon is a staple at dinnertime. We love it as well. It’s so refreshing plus has tremedous health benefits. I have several recipes and facts I’ve posted in July about watermelon. Check them out if you have the time.

    Thanks for your post.

  3. Okay – I have to be honest…I want the knife because it’s COOL! Can you see me serving watermelon to my family and break out that knife? My status would go WAY up! I love it!

  16. What a cute addition to any summer BBQ! This would be a great gift for any hostess! I would love to have this knife with as much watermelon we grow and eat in my home…
    I wonder how it works with other fruits.. Not that I wouldn’t want a full set for pineapples and melons too!

    I am also curious about this watermelon salsa.. Do you have any other recipes with watermelon?

  17. @foodie – I got it foodie. Thanks for your post.

    @jamietoon – I haven’t tried it on other fruits but it’s a durable knife so if you get it you can try. As for other watermelon recipes – I posted a grilled watermelon salad with goat cheese and balsamic vinegar. Here is the link to all my watermelon posts. There are three:
