Ginsu Knife Commercial 1978

I remember this commercial well and liked it. Even my practical mother could not resist and bought this in 1979.

For me personally, a matching fork has always made carving a pleasure.

OP's mom found pleasure in the damnedest places.

I’m sure it’s still in perfect condition.

I remember that commercial playing well into the 80s, OP.

As a preteen, I was sold.

My mother was a great cook and lived in the kitchen. She also didn't like anything fun or new, so I could not talk her into buying it.

There was a version of this ad with the line “slice meat so thin your in-laws will never come back”. As a kid I didn’t understand what that meant. Actually I still don’t understand what that meant.
