Are frost cutlery knives good?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you're referring to Jim Frost and Cutlery Corner Knives, they've actually got some really nice knives! Both frost family knives (knife brand) and cutlery corner ( tv show on cable and website that actually sells several brands of knives), have a ton of quality items. I just ran across them on tv and now I'm hooked. It comes on late so set your DVR or go online to cutlerycorner.net I've bought a ton of their knives over the past month and have been extremely happy with every single one of them. Just my opinion though, so take it for what it's worth but I've bought enough to know if they're junk or not. None of mine are junk!

Why did Napoleon III use aluminum silverware?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

He didn't use aluminum silverware. Aluminum objects were not produced in his life. He died in 1873.Most likely he used tin. It isn't until the late 1889 that a process was developed by Charles Martin Hall to make it into objects. As early as 1787 the ore was known to exist, but there was no way to extract it until 1825.

___

Yes Napoleon III did use aluminum utensils. He was very proud of them.

"Napoleon III proudly displayed aluminum cutlery at his state banquets, commissioned aluminum equipment for his military and even had an aluminum and gold baby rattle made for his son."

Henri Sainte-Claire Deville of France discovered the aluminum process prior to the American discovery. Charles Martin Hall and Frenchman Paul L.T. Héroult discovered a cheaper way of making aluminium.

Cleaning Tarnished SilverThe short answer: A good silver polish and "elbow grease".

There are a number of ways to clean your silver, but you need to be careful as to what methods you use. Many of the over-the-counter silver jewelry cleaners contain harmful carcinogens that have been known to cause cancer, so you might want to avoid those for your silver-cleaning needs.

The best way to keep silver clean is to avoid tarnish to begin with. To do this, make sure that you store your silver in a zip-lock baggie. When silver gets dirty or tarnished, create a baking soda paste with water and baking soda and gently rub the paste all over the silver with a damp cloth until the silver is clean. Rinse the silver off and make sure you dry it well before storing it or wearing it. People have also been known to use this same method using toothpaste instead of baking soda and water.

Answer

I put baking soda and boiling water in an aluminum baking pan and heat it on my stove top then i dip my silver items in it and let soak for a few seconds, they come out quite clean with little 'elbow grease'.

How do you lay your silverware after eating?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

I was taught to lay your fork across the plate and place the knife in the tongs of the fork. It is a clear signal that you have finished your meal and when someone clears the plate, the utensils do not slide all over the place. I learned this at Mississippi State College for Women in Columbus, MS.

What is meaning of cutlery?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Cutlery is a noun that describes the class of objects which we use to help us eat food. Knives, forks and spoons are all cutlery. It's derived from the old French word coutel which means knife. Traditionally, only metal implements were considered to be cutlery, but with the introduction of plastic tableware those also are. But what about tableware that might be considered non-traditional to Western eaters? Are chopstick cutlery? Perhaps! We shall have to see how language changes to find out.

How do you clean silver plated flatware?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It's best to use special cleaning products specifically for polishing silver. Apply the cleaner to 100% cotton balls so as not to scratch the silver and rub gently. If the tarnish doesn't come off, try an old toothbrush with softened bristles. There's a good article on caring for silver at link below.

What is the correct way to place silverware in dishwasher facing up or down?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you place it so that the handles are up, you do not have to touch the working end of the freshly sanitized silverware when it's done. This position also puts the dirty end nearest the high-pressure jets below during washing and rinsing. However, the handles are usually thinner, so you can get a lot more silverware into a rack if the handles are down.
