Jasper County Democrat, Volume 20, Number 82, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 12 January 1918 — Glass Fruit Knife. [ARTICLE]

Glass Fruit Knife.

The ordinary steel or plated knife, as evbry housewife knows, Is attacked . by the acids of many fruits, making a stain that is removed only with considerable labor. A glass knife is now on the market which is quite impervious to the most active frpit acid, and it takes a good edge, though of eburse, in view of its brittleness, a somewhat thicker one than we are accustomed to. With a little of the care in washing which even now must be bestowed upon the china gravy ladlq and similar objects, this knife should prove very acceptable for cutting grapefruit, lemons. oranges, etc. —Scientific American.
