For decades, Television has been feeding us with offers we just simply can not pass up. As we grew up in the television age, we could not understand how a home could go without a set of eversharp knives, a multi-purpose survival knife, or a hand operated can opener that miraculously eliminates all sharp edges of the can.

Our intent was to explore this genre of American television-commercial-making. We feel we learned to identify several key ingredients and by combining them, we've created what, we feel, is an authentic-looking advertisement.
