The History of Paladin

Anyone who is interested in tools is probably familiar with the brand of Paladin. Specifically, they specialize in tools designed for wire and cable preparation, testing, and termination. The parent company has been around for over thirty years, but they had a major expansion in 2001. In that year, Paladin tools expanded considerably into the do-it-yourself market.

In 2005, they underwent yet another expansion with a series of multi-tools. These tools were designed with electricians in mind, whether those electricians were private users or professionals. The last major change to the company came in late 2007. In December of that year, Greenlee Textron Inc. acquired Paladin. Greenlee also specializes in professional tools, thus expanding that segment of the Paladin market.

These Knives Are Celebrated Worldwide

A sharp blade is something you’d ordinarily expect to find in most knives.  What is rare and uncommon are knife handles that protect against microbes or are simultaneously hygienic, dishwasher safe, and slip resistant. These can only be found in the best of knives.

Victorinox knives are celebrated worldwide not only for their extremely sharp, stainless steel Swiss made blades that can be honed repeatedly.  They are similarly valued and preferred by countless chefs and food handlers for their exceptional handles.  The Victorinox line of knives with antibacterial protection is singularly impressive since it prevents the growth and proliferation of germs, molds and fungus that cause undesirable odor and stains.  Another line of Victorinox knives has sturdy, practical grips that are slip resistant and dishwasher safe, making them a delight to use over and over, and for multiple kitchen tasks.  But then the name Victorinox has always been synonymous with excellence and superiority, so culinary experts expect nothing less from these cutting tools.
