Cutco are sellers of overpriced and mediocre quality knives and the only other employer Chris has had besides Wendy's. Chris was employed by Cutco from June to September 2003.
Chris describes his background with Cutco in the Miyamoto Saga e-mails:
| “ | One summer I was employed as a Salesman for Cutco products; the owners of the "Double-D" Edge and the Super Shears that can cut a penny to create a pig-tail. Lifetime Guarantee on sharpness. The boss left at Summer's end, and I lost that job. FYI, I was very cautious with my samples of cutary [sic], and I do not have any intentions of harming myself or anyone else. My record is clean. | ” |
| Chris, clarifying that he is not emo | ||
Cutco knives really do cut pennies to create pig tails and they do have a lifetime guarantee, but there are higher quality knives at half the cost of Cutco. Cutco, under the guise of Vector Marketing, is also a notorious borderline scam [1]. While arguably not an outright scam, they will hire more or less anyone who is willing to pay $150 upfront for a "demo kit" and get people to buy overpriced knife sets on commission through leads (in other words, Chris was not going door to door). They target high schoolers and college students along with people with no real experience (such as autistic manchildren) for these salesman (or as they like to call them positions.)
It is unknown if Chris was ever able to sell a knife set to any of his leads, as even people who aren't autistic, corpulent manchildren have trouble doing so. It is possible he did sell so people could get him out of their house. In reality though, the only commission he ever made was from his parents who bought something from him to make him feel better. Chris touched back on the subject on his CWCipedia entry, explaining that his Cutco job "was ONLY a Summer gig" and "it may have gone longer if my boss had not left Charlottesville for good in August" [2]. Chris is oblivious to the fact that his "boss" pretty much took his money and skipped town.
