Clearing Up Confusion in the Different Types of Gerber LMF II Knives - ASEK vs Infantry vs Survival

A word of caution when you buy this style of knife, many dealers don't even know the differences in the models. I have seen both, brick and mortar stores and online stores selling the wrong knife under the wrong name so BE CAREFUL! It may be worth it to pay a little more from a reputable retailer to be sure you're getting exactly what you want.

Cutlery And More

There are three types (not two) of Gerber LMF II knives, the ASEK, the Survival, and the Infantry. Most people think there were only two types released. Here are the differences.

Cutlery And More

The Gerber LMF II ASEK version comes with the sheath, knife, TWO leg straps, the safety knife, and the safety knife sheath. The extra blades for the safety knife can be found in the handle. The ASEK is ONLY available in the foliage green color and it is INFRA-RED resistant.

The Gerber LMF II Survival version comes with the sheath, knife, TWO leg straps, the safety knife, and the safety knife sheath. The extra blades for the safety knife can be found in the handle. The SURVIVAL version is ONLY available in the camel brown color. It is NOT infra-red resistant.

The Gerber LMF II Infantry version comes with the sheath, and ONE leg strap. The INFANTRY version is available in foliage green, camel brown, and my personal favorite... black.

There is one other thing of importance you should know. From January 2008 to April 2008 the steel of these knives was temporarily changed from the Sandvik 12C27 SS to 440A US SS. In May of 2008 production was resumed with the original steel. Gerber had to change steel types because of a lack of material available. The 440A US SS was the closest match they could get.

These are great knives and I highly recommend them. They are excellent for hunting, camping, survival, and they have even seen action in foreign lands. If you are looking for a good solid fixed blade knife you can't go wrong with one of these models.

Here are the model numbers of the different types of knives.

22-01627 Foliage Green LMFII ASEK (IR)
22-01626 Foliage Green LMF II Infantry
22-01117 Foliage Green LMFII Knife only (no sheath included)
22-01118 Foliage Green LMFII Sheath only (no knife included)
22-01400 Camel Brown LMFII Survival
22-01463 Camel Brown LMF II Infantry
22-01629 Black LMF II Infantry

How to Skin a Thanksgiving Turkey

Properly dressing and skinning a turkey is an important part of the hunting process. Poor field dressing and skinning can result in wasted meat, bacterial diseases, or attracting unwanted visitors such as bears or cougars. Following are some basic instructions for properly dressing and skinning a wild turkey.

Cutlery And More

Field Dressing Your Game

Cutlery And More

Field dressing is extremely important, especially if the weather is extra warm or you have a long way to travel afterwards. Make sure your cutlery is sharp and ready for use. A high-quality Bowie or skinning knife has a stainless steel blade, a solid handle, and measures about 8 to 9 inches long. A dull knife can be messy and dangerous, so make sure your blade is sharp enough to do the job.

Insert your knife into the bottom of the breastplate and cut all the way to the anal vent. Next, remove all entrails through the incision. Reach into the bird to sever the heart, lungs and windpipe. If it's noticeably warm out, you may want to consider cooling the bird by stuffing the newly emptied cavity with ice. Make sure to clean your hunting knife afterwards.

Skinning a Turkey

Many turkey hunters prefer skinning a bird to plucking, mostly because it is much quicker. Skinning a turkey can take as little as three minutes, if done correctly. Plucking a bird can take time and make quite a mess.

Another reason hunters prefer skinning is because it is healthier to eat. Plucking leaves the skin on, and although cooked turkey skin is tasty, it contains high levels of fat and cholesterol. A skinned bird makes for a healthier meal.

First, hang the turkey by its head and cut the wings off at the first joint. Remove the beard by pulling off the loose skin and cutting it at the base. Next, remove the legs by cutting at the first joint, where the feathers meet the legs.

After you've removed the wings and legs, turn the bird over and insert the knife into the neck. Follow the natural division between the back and breast feathers and continue the incision down the length of the back, from the base of the bird, to the tail feathers. When you reach the tail feathers, the fan can be easily removed by cutting the base of the tail.

The bird is nearly skinned at this point; now you need to remove the skin you missed when removing the wings, legs and cape. Simply pull and cut with the knife as needed. An easy method of removing the leg skin is by rolling it down the leg as far as it will go and cutting it off at the end.

Now that you've properly dressed and skinned your bird, the only thing left to do is cook! In many states it is actually illegal to remove only the breast and throw the rest of the turkey away, so remember to use the rest of the bird. There are many great recipes available online for fresh wild turkey, and now it's up to you to make a good feast.

Choosing A New Delta Kitchen Faucet

Our old faucet broke a few weeks ago, and we didn't really want to rush out and buy another one. We were able to glue down the base so it wouldn't leak and would shut off, but we knew it was a short term solution. It was time to hunt for a new kitchen faucet.

Cutlery And More

Delta was one of the top brands we looked at. Their website shows the kitchen line as having fourteen different main styles to choose from, and within that there are dozens more variations on the theme. That is a lot of choices.

Cutlery And More

The options include faucets with additional sprayer wands, some without, some have a high goose like swooping neck, others have a shorter faucet neck. There is even one that is at a complete 90 degree angle, it's appropriately named the Grail, and it does look like something from history that you'd see on an old hand pump. The old fashioned look is coming back into style I guess.

There are single handle options and those with separate knobs for hot and cold (not my personal favorite). From an ease of use standpoint I think it's much easier to have just one faucet to adjust instead of using both hands to adjust two knobs. When you have young children and are usually holding that wriggling child in one arm you only have one free hand to adjust water temperature.

Some of them come with soap and lotion dispensers, which I think is a waste of space and money. However some people do use them so if this is useful to know at least know it is an option.

Copper Cookware - Classic Kitchen Equipment

Copper has been used for cooking for hundreds of years. It is highly favored for its excellent heat conductivity. However, it also has its share of downsides, but manufacturers have found a solution to the shortcomings of this valued metal.

Cutlery And More

Copper cookware boasts of being more conductive than others by up to ten times - ranking higher than glass or stainless steel in this respect. When using them, cooking time should be considerably reduced and high heat employed at a minimum.

Cutlery And More

But because copper is easily scratched and is naturally soft, it is combined with other metals to make more durable cookware. Usually it is sandwiched between layers of stainless steel, tin, or nickel.

The problem, however, is that the latter two metals are not as strong as stainless steel. Tin becomes unstable at temperatures of 45o degrees Fahrenheit or higher, while nickel, although ductile and hard, may be reactive.

Copper cookware is also prone to tarnishing, especially when acidic foods, such as tomato-based dishes, are cooked in it. Copper can likewise leach into foods and impart an objectionable taste. There is also the possibility that illnesses may arise from this leaching.

Copper cookware doesn't have to be as shiny as they were the day you bought them. In fact, some homeowners prefer these items to be slightly bruised and scratched to achieve that well-worn and antique look.

On the other hand, if you want your copper cookware collection to keep looking new, you can opt for the models that come with a "brushed" texture. This gives your kitchen a touch of class and saves on polishing. Copper cookware can be quite expensive - there are some collections costing several hundred dollars apiece!

If you're investing on copper cookware, make sure the pieces match in terms of design and texture. You could also stock up on different copper cookware varieties according to function, such as frying pans, stockpots, preserving pans, and zabaglione pans.

Despite the downsides of copper cookware, it is still the cookware of choice of many gourmet chefs. You can't go wrong with copper cookware when it comes to speed in cooking, versatility, and stylishness.

Domestic Cleaning Secrets: How to Turn Used Jar Lids Into Candle Holders, or a Fun Household Game!

Let's look again at Douwe Egberts coffee jars. Most people look no further than the container part of the jar itself. But in this article we are going to focus on the lids. Did you know that you can create stylish tea-light/candle holders from the lids? Or why not turn decorating the lids into making a fancy jars game for the whole family or household to join in? You will need (for the tea-light/candle holders): 2-4 Douwe Egberts coffee jars, or quantity of your choice ordinary cutlery knife 2-4 tea-lights/candles (allow one per jar lid)

Cutlery And More

You will need (for the fancy jar lids): 2 or more Douwe Egberts coffee jars (or at least one per person/child) ordinary cutlery knife (keep away from small children, of course) selection of small, brightly coloured sweets and/or cake decorations of your choice, such as chocolate sprinkles and hundreds and thousands 2 or more short scraps of coloured ribbon or cord (allow one per jar), about 30 cm/12 inches in length (optional)

Cutlery And More

Method:

1. Clean the jars and remove all labels and ink (see my previous article in this series for how to do this). Ensure the jars are dried thoroughly before use.

2. Take one of the jar lids and turn it upside down. You will see that the underside of the lid is covered with a soft plastic seal.

3. Using the blunt edge of the cutlery knife (adults and older children only), insert it gently lengthways/lengthwise under the lip of the plastic seal, between the plastic and the glass. Do not use the point or the sharp edge of the knife or you will damage the fragile plastic of the seal.

4. Carefully twist the blunt edge of the blade upwards to prise off the seal from the glass lid. It should come off easily.

5. Repeat steps 2-4 to remove the seals from the other lids, if using. (You won't need the plastic seals for the tea-light/candle holders, but you will need them for the fancy jars) The lids are now ready to use.

If you are going to use them as tea-light/candle holders, place each lid upside down on a heatproof surface with open end upwards. You will now see that they make a perfectly sized glass holder for tea-lights/candles. Insert a tea-light/candle into each holder, and light when ready to use.

If you are going to use them as fancy jar lids, place each lid upside down so that the open ends are upwards. Fill each lid with small, brightly coloured sweets and/or cake decorations until almost at the top, but don't overfill or you won't be able to get the plastic seal back on. Put the plastic seal back on each lid and press down firmly. The fancy lid is now finished. Simply put it back on the jar. You can now leave the jar as it is, or tie a piece of coloured ribbon or cord into a box or decorative knot around the neck of the jar to add to the fancy effect. Note: once you have separated the plastic seals from the glass lids, smaller children who are old enough to hold a glass can get in on the act by putting their favourite sweets into the lids and then pressing the seals back on. Hours of family fun are guaranteed!

Types of Network Marketing Companies

Cutlery And More

I have been involved in network marketing companies on and off for over 15 years now. In my experience with different marketing companies, cutlery, finance, nutrition, etc. I have had so many questions that nobody has ever been able to answer. more times than not people have always referred me to a webpage or a book or they simply don't know the answer!

Cutlery And More

Having been saturated in the industry full time now for over 6 months, I've learned more about network marketing than I ever have! It's been such an incredible learning experience: I know now that I was floating before... and I don't know how I even managed. In fact I didn't manage! I just hoped that this industry would do something for me. This industry has helped me tremendously in raising my confidence, energy levels, taking massive action, etc.

Now I realized that the Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) industry can't actually do anything for me unless I work for it... if I do the bidding of the market... and I work towards what the market expects of me. If I want to make money in this industry I have to understand the network marketing beast for myself first. So, I have assembled a summary of the question: What types of Network Marketing Companies exist out there?

There are 4 types of network marketing companies:

1. Scams: everybody has seen MLM companies that are scams, heard of MLM companies that are scams, or been involved in MLM companies that are scams. There are scams everywhere in every prominent industry. But that doesn't mean that every MLM company is a scam! that's ridiculous! In fact most of them are not! lol Amway was the first MLM company accused of being a pyramid scam. They are also the most prominent example of the pyramid scam because Amway IS the first MLM. Amway is the mother, the father, and the grandparents of all network companies that have every existed.

2. Party Plans: for these companies, you invite everybody over house and you market candles, avon, vitamins, etc.,... and even sex toys or passion parties someone once told me! These companies are great models if you want to make 00 to 00 per month. However, if you want leveraged residual income, the party plans will not cut it.

3. The Big Boys: now these MLMs are the one's that are well established companies like Herbalife, Amway, Melaleuca, ect. These companies have made a lot of money and are still making a killing... you are sure to make 00-00 per monthif you work really hard and you are consistent. The problem with the Big Boys is something we in this industry call MARKET SATURATION. They have been involved so long in the industry that their peak has passed and they have leveled off on the growth scale. Not much room for growth.

4.The Holy Grail: I call this last category of MLMs The Holy Grail. This can give you the most leveraged residual income possible. There are new opportunities coming out all the time. Each one innovating a new way of paying people. Each one! With these 3 elements: being in the right place--at the right time--with the right leadership, you can make a life changing financial experience. There are many companies involved in this category including herbal, vitamin, nutritional, cellular, travel, shopping, etc.

Let's focus on the largest parts of The Holy Grail companies: Nuritional --> The problem with the nutritional companies is that out of the 5000 network marketing companies out in the world today, 4800 are selling some kind of vitamin. that's 4800 out of 5000 MLM companies. That's over 95% of the total world of network marketing. There is too much competition.

Technology --> as time passes the value of technology decreases. A computer that I buy today that costs 00 I will be able to buy the same computer for 0 next year! The prices in technology become cheaper quickly over time. There is a price pressure that is always pushing down on the market and thus the company. The value of the product decreases as does the longevity of the company!

So what company should you go for? How about a company with great leadership, an almost endless amount of financial backing, an absolutely up and coming rock star! Which brings me to AMA.

Why is American Approved (AMA) Energy Direct Services such a great company to be with?

1) Great leadership and financial backing: You have to have rock solid leadership in a company to ensure a solid base from which to work. This comes even before a great product. You also must have great financial backing. Financial backing even comes before a great product to market. Why? A company with poor financial backing and poor leadership will not survive in today's world of network marketing. AMA has the top million dollar marketing leaders, and top CEO multi-million dollar backing.

2) A product that people will buy even if they don't build a business. People buy products and residual income comes from people that buy products. It does not come from distributors. What happens is that people begin as distributors and end up being loyal customers because the product is something they cannot do without!

3) There has to be a great compensation plan: What two things do you need to have a successful comp plan? You need an upfront residual income and a back-end residual income

In the history of MLM there have been 2 successful comp plans: 1. coded bonus network marketing plans, and 2. binary commission structures

Although the coded bonus network marketing plan has been successful in the the technology sector in the 90s, the binary commission structure has cut the biggest checks in the industry. We will focus on this structure.

The Binary Plan Network marketing is a business where you start small. You get 5 people who help get 5 people, those 5 people in turn help 5 people who help... you get the point. When do you do that 7 levels down you have 78000 people! That's a lot of people. That's how this industry grows and how it works.

Taking massive action is necessary! That is how binary works. You must enroll now in order to be successful. The earlier you get in, the more people you are able to enroll. The more people you and I can help reach success, the more success you and I get to enjoy. YOUR SUCCESS IS MY SUCCESS IN THIS INDUSTRY!

Listeria Risk in Pregnancy

Listeria bacteria are found every where in our environment -- soil, water, plants, sewage, and animal droppings. Usually people get infected by the bacteria through contaminated food leading to an infection known as listeriosis.

Cutlery And More

Listeria is extremely dangerous for pregnant women, unborn babies, elderly and anyone with depressed immune system. If a pregnant woman gets listeriosis, it can lead to miscarriage, premature delivery or stillbirth. Newborn babies who get infected by the bacteria can get chest infection, sepsis, encephalitis or meningitis. These conditions can cause death of the newborn baby.

Cutlery And More

Listeriosis causes flu-like symptoms which include low grade fever, headache, diarrhea, joint and muscle aches and pains, cough, cold, nausea and vomiting. Some women can develop high grade fever, which poses serious threats to the unborn child.

Pregnant women invariably catch the bacteria by eating infected food. Here are some tips to avoid listeria risk in pregnancy.

o Food should be cooked thoroughly and eaten while it is still piping hot
o Make sure that all fruits and vegetables are thoroughly washed under flowing water
o Tin foods are safe to consume and do not pose a threat
o Drink only pasteurized milk
o Those who have an urge to eat cheese should eat only pasteurized cheese, cream cheese or cottage cheese
o Dried foods like nuts, lentils and beans are safe to consume
o Do not eat stored salads
o Do not consume any food made from raw milk
o Make sure you wash your hands and any utensils or cutlery with hot water and soap after touching and cutting uncooked foods
o When storing food, make sure meats are separately stored from vegetables and cooked food. Uncooked meat should be wrapped and stored.
