    BST Buyer/ Seller Feedback Thread

    Why? Because it would be helpful to many KKFers. Post your good (and bad) dealings here. At least do it until the thread gets locked.

    2024 East Coast Gathering (ECG) - Sunday, July 14, Washington, DC Area

    Trying to get an earlier start this year on locking down a date for the ECG. Hopefully that will help prevent some vacation conflicts and also help in getting more local cooks/ chefs. Potential attendees, please let me know if July 14 is good/ no good. (EDIT -- it is officially set for July 14)

    Better Mousetrap?

    Is this a solution waiting for a problem? I could see having a charcuterie slicer like the bread cutter Butch (or was it Doug S?) brought back to life a few years ago. Maybe with a removable stainless steel blade for ease of cleaning and sharpening. Put it out on the table at parties, along...

    Doug Seward's Passing (DougS)

    All: Butch Harner posted a note on the Fora earlier about Doug Seward passing away: While Doug's activity on the kitchen knife forums tailed off quite a bit the last few years, he was very active in the early days. He attended many of the ECGs, and was known for teaming up with Butch to make...

    vacmaster VP-112 Does Not Seal

    Our 5 year old VP-112 is not sealing. vacuum works fine, pistons activate and push up the bar, but it seems that a circuit is not being completed because the bar does not get warm at all. Last week it would work half the time, but it steadily got worse (1 out of every 3 or 4 tries) and now it...
