Warther Knives
First to recommend
Description
These knives are beautiful. The are sold in sets and separately. Ernest "Mooney" Warther, a wonderful carver, started making knives in 1902. Family carries on this practice of making knives. They grind and polish each knife by hand and are easy identifiable by the circular patterns. Wonderful wedding gift or Christmas gift.
Free sharpening for the life of the knife. These are truly exceptional.
The museum is less than an hour away. I'd highly recommend if you are ever in Ohio. He did many unbelievable carvings of trains. The Smithsonian has tried ever-so-hard to acquire them, but his family is adhering to his wishes - of his work to stay where he did it.

Who the heck gives any thought to sponges???
Well, somebody, and they make a good point. The website informs me that traditional sponge manufacturing creates a lot of waste (not to mention the waste when we throw them into our trash). They claim that 99.97% of their waste is reused. In addition, the cellulose comes from renewable tree farms.
They are washable and bio-degradable. Fabulous. (via ljcfyi.com)

Korin Sandclean Scrubbers

Description
I have not tried them, but anything biodegradable is good in my book. Not for delicate dishware, but good for everyday cleaning. Long lasting, compared to our disposable sponges.
Very funky, artsy and unpredictable! (via metaefficient.com)
