I think I have to agree with a comment someone made there, in that I prefer the Shep Fields version.

Metal butter knives are tangibly better, I’m sorry nords or whoever. If nothing else it’s probably less environmentally impactful to make cheap rear end metal sticks than to use wood, especially when cheap rear end metal forks and spoons and knives are already being churned out.

That said, I don’t care what that one goon thinks a butter knife looks like, I really want to know how they managed to cut themself with any kind of one.

I was trying to do dishes and attempted to take a butter knife from the hand of a sibling, I grabbed the blade end and pulled but they didn't let go so it cut my hand.

I'm sorry about this butter knife derail everybody.

If you're not using an offset spatula to spread butter, you're just not serious.

Cut out the middle man and just grab the stick of butter and eat it.
Less dishes to clean, too.

Using the stick of butter like a giant crayon and colouring everything you want to eat in a butter colour is how professionals do it.

For goodness sake, leave your butter out like a civilized person and use a plastic or wooden spreader so it doesn't transfer heat when buttering hot things.

idg why you'd have a knife specifically for only spreading butter instead of using a regular knife but refrigerating butter so that it can't be spread is definitely stupid

Just take a bite out of the stick of butter then take a bite of bread. More efficient and no dishes to wash. You hoity toity pieces of poo poo with your fancy "knives" and "buttering techniques".

Just make sure you have enough spare batteries on hand for your heated butter knife???


Or just splash out for a rechargeable heated butter knife if that's a problem???


Or just buy a thermally conductive titanium butter knife that uses the body warmth from your hand????

It's silly, but for people that don't leave out a stick at room temp.

What really sucks is when the room temperature is still too cool for spreadable butter.

Put your butter knife in the microwave while the toaster is going and you'll have a hot treat in no time.

Alternately: shove it up your rear end for a few seconds (just don't let go).

Edit: only if you have one of those flat, ice cream scraper things not an actual spoon scoop. I think the spoon scoop up the rear end would be unfortunate.

All these things do is put a thin film of molten butter on the blade so every piece of butter neatly slides off of the blade and onto the table.

If you have enough access to electricity to have a refrigerator to put butter in, you also have enough access to electricity for room temperature to be less than 95F.

lmao like im gonna run the aircon all day while i'm at work on a hot summer's day just to prevent my butter from melting. I could just stick it in the fridge instead, most people use butter in a tub rather than a stick.

Just wanna point out that wooden knifes are way better for the environment than metal. Since wood is a renewable resource and metal needs a lot of energy to smelt.

You should. The quality is higher and it lasts longer and it's great for the local economy if they who smelt it dealt it.
