The Ginsu knife is a product most famous for the activities that were used to promote it. It was made famous through a series of long-form advertisements in the 1970s and it is claimed paved the way for the modern day infomercial with its use of quirky catchphrases, comical quips, and urgent call to action, including the phrase "how much would you pay...don't answer" and "but wait, there's more".

Can you believe that one of the first ads for Ginsu Knives was back in 1978.

 See it for yourself!

Back then you could get a 10 piece set for $9.99.  Today, you can get a 20 piece Ginsu Knife Set (Block) for only $21.99 when you shop my store.  Sure, times have changed and prices have gone up (slightly), but the quality of a Ginsu knife has not changed.

The Ginsu Story

"Several decades ago a knife was created that is to this day known as the "Sharpest Knife on the Market". It was the Ginsu knife. Ginsu knives are a symbol of ancient Japanese traditions. The Samurai sword is renowned for being sharp enough to cut through anything. Ginsu knives were created to reflect that same quality, in craftsmanship and sharpness with Japanese stainless steel that will still cut through anything. The quality of Ginsu knives is not only known and respected by consumers, but also by all other premium knife brands. Bring home the quality and sharpness of Ginsu cutlery today.  "

Surely, you can see that when you purchase a Ginsu cutlery set, you are purchasing quality.
