When we Razel owners talk about the service we get from these knives it often sounds like we're building log cabins or punching through automobile hoods. But the knife has uses for the regular-joe, and it's very useful for those average problems.
Now you may find this hard to believe, but there is a lot of leather at my house. We buy protectants like some folks buy breakfast cereal. The owner of Cecil's Sandal and Repair Shop knows my wife and I by our first names--even the sound of my bike.
One pair of my riding boots needed a spiff-up, so this morning I grabbed a can of saddle-soap. We foolishly keep it under the sink, next to the dishwasher, and with that moisture it appears that the lid did not seal properly.
I opened the can to a growth of fungus. And for those of you familiar with saddle-soap, it dries to a hard waxy puck. Now, I said to myself, "Myself, what I need is a strong, yet small and strong knife to carve off the fungus, but oh, my, what shall I use! I'm so frightened!"
Then I remembered *bing bonk head slap* I'm a Razel owner!
I made a few quick and certain slices with my smaller Stubby Razel, and within minutes I was a-soapin' the place up.
A minor problem to be sure, but a common one. The Razel was right there, handy, efficient and truly the correct tool.
So the next time there's a ruckus at your favorite Perkins and you see a biker standing over a fallen townie, don't be surprised to hear, "Oh, you've crushed my spleen, but those boots are beautiful..!"
Once again, the Razel to the rescue!
