In our rummaging through boxes of kitchen utensils of late whilst packing to move closer to the hub of sewer raccoonage, we found that we still have a Usinger's sausage knife. We looked feverishly for it after reading the Milw. Journal-Sentinel's recent article about these highly desirable collectible knives. Written by food editor Nancy Stohs, it elicited several write-ins from readers with Usinger knife stories.
You have to be either from Milwaukee or hipped, regardless of your location, to the world famous Usinger's Milw. sausage company on Old World 3rd St. to know about these blades that come with delectable sausages.
Our knife is in the vaunted and lusted-after rare avocado colour. This is indeed one very special knife, a handy tool that will go with us when we move.
