Atrioc just doesn’t understand Chef Wonderful. Clearly you don’t own a $4,000 blade.
somebody should make a meme where its Mr Wonderful photoshopped on a weeb posing in the mirror, saying shit like "While you were investing in shark tank flops, I was mastering my blade" and post it to Coffee Cows subreddit
@@lainothefirst Sounds like you're halfway there!
What color is your blade?
Guaranteed he fucking ruins that blade and doesn't take care of it
Clearly
For those who don't understand Kevin, possessing a 4K, Japanese-made kitchen knife is not simply an act of acquisition, but rather a rite of culinary connoisseurship. To own such an instrument is to embrace the pinnacle of craftsmanship and precision, to imbue one's culinary creations with an unparalleled level of finesse and artistry.
The Japanese, with their venerated tradition of blade-smithing and acute attention to detail, have elevated the kitchen knife to a level of sublime perfection. A 4K blade, with its stunningly sharp edge and unparalleled durability, is the epitome of this culinary mastery. It is not just a tool, but a conduit through which the culinary artist may express their virtuosity.
To wield such a knife is to enter into a symphony of slicing and dicing, a symphony in which the chef is both composer and conductor. Each motion, each incision, is a note in the symphony, and the final dish, a masterpiece.
In an age where mediocrity is all too often tolerated, owning a 4K, Japanese-made kitchen knife is a statement of one's commitment to excellence. It is an assertion of one's discerning palate, and an affirmation of one's uncompromising standards. In short, it is an embodiment of culinary refinement and a testament to one's impeccable taste.
How much would it take for you to do all my english class essays this year?
Kevin has studied the blade
@@goddog8139 true🤣
You are being facetious... right?
@@joshuaschalesky It is with the utmost sincerity and reverence that I defend the acquisition of a $4,000 Japanese-made kitchen knife by Kevin O'Leary. To understand the gravity of such a purchase, one must first comprehend the cultural and historical significance of Japanese blade-smithing.
The Japanese have long held a venerated tradition of crafting knives with precision and attention to detail. These knives are not mere tools, but rather, they are a reflection of the craftsman's dedication to their art. To own a Japanese-made knife is to possess a piece of culinary history, a tangible manifestation of the Japanese spirit of perfectionism and excellence.
Furthermore, it is important to note that a kitchen knife is not simply a tool for the mundane task of slicing and dicing, but rather, it is an extension of the chef's creativity and skill. A chef's knife is the most essential tool in a kitchen, and to have the finest one is to have the finest tool. A $4,000 knife will be made of the best materials, with the sharpest edge, and the most durable construction. It will also be made with the most precise and meticulous craftsmanship, which is why it is worth the price.
In the context of Kevin O'Leary's acquisition, it is clear that the purchase of this knife is a reflection of his commitment to excellence and his discerning palate. To invest in such a knife is not an act of frivolous indulgence, but rather, a testament to one's culinary ambition and an affirmation of one's uncompromising standards.
In conclusion, a $4,000 Japanese-made kitchen knife is not simply a tool, but rather, it is a symbol of culinary refinement, cultural heritage, and a commitment to excellence. To possess such a knife is to embrace the pinnacle of craftsmanship and precision, and to imbue one's culinary creations with an unparalleled level of finesse and artistry.
Lori basically said "Open your mouth for the airplane" and made a few million.
😮
Lori is literally mommy
@@user-uv2cp1qd1j 🤨
@@user-uv2cp1qd1j ☹️
Lori used her mouth to move up if you know what I mean
Big A could easily be a shark, he has that glocal strategy they need
Big A is Mister Global himself!
I love how glocal is both a combine or global and local, as if the term worldwide didnt already exsist
@EnderBoi glizzyhands, glarkiter. Checks out coffee cow
Big A’s more like a dolphin in my mind
this comment is goated
The golden ticket is literally just Lori branding herself… she’s gonna become the iPhone of sharks since she’s gonna get so many deals but she’s gonna be seen as the “exclusive shark/higher end shark”
shark branding is:
Lori: actual smart dealer, exclusivity.
Mark: throw money at the situation and see what happens.
Robert: "my parents were immigrants."
Kevin: asshole, royalties, will try to buy you out of your companies.
Daymond: "no."
(can't speak for barbara or any others because I'm less familiar with them)
@@a.w_. Honestly that sounds about right. From what I've heard Barbara has the least amount of wealth of any of them so she consequently has the least amount of money to make deals with and also just kind of seems less concerned with branding herself as the other sharks so any deal she does get interested in is likely turned down because the pitcher opts to go with another shark with either deeper pockets like Mark or sharks that sell their brand better like Lori and occasionally Kevin.
@@bigbearkat2010 yeah the ongoing joke is Barbara always says no. But she actually got the biggest success story, it beat scrub daddy lol
@@a.w_. this is so accurate
She already is seen like that for years now. People come there to get her specifically, no other shank has that appeal. Mark Cuban got the money, but Lori got everything else.
Call it what you will but Lori's on the grindset and it pays off
Grinder?
Kevin saying "4000 dollars on a blade" when he's extremely rich is ridiculous
That's like pennies to him
I guess he doesn’t let his wealth skew the value of things 🤷♂️
@@TheGrimStride the same dude who's at bat for sbf?
mans got the adventure landing blade
chef wonderful needs that class
i think its more the fact that most knives cost much less than that so spending "4000 dollars on a blade" is supposed to show how invested he is in knives
Lori is the MVP of the show, Most of the deals come from her
beautiful, smart, latina(?)
she also just gets really successful deals, think she's the majority of the most successful companies on shark tank
Most of the products fit her platform with QVC. She’s also by far the best salesperson of any of the sharks.
@helpless3 Yes, she is. Of the top 20 most successful deals in Shark Tank history... Lori was in 10 of them
@@1738Crafting bonk
Big A, you make fun of Chef Wonderful for owning a $4,000 samurai sword, but how can you ignore the $20,000 worth of tax returns you haven't yet paid?
are you the irs? (pls dont come for me)
How can he ignore the 1.65 canadian dollars he owes quack for editing multiple years unpaid
@@Umer_ Nah bro you fucked, they climaxing as we speak
How can he ignore the 7 skinless bodies in Lories basement?
I love paying tax RETURNS
Barbara slumped in the chair just saying “damn” is one of the funniest shark tank moments in my opinion😂😂
Am gonna be honest when I was watching it for the first time the golden ticket made me forget Barbara's offer. I needed to watch back to see that her's was so much better.
I have used the bug bite thing and it’s ACTUALLY GOATED. As someone who gets bit by a lot of bugs, it works SO WELL and has saved me a lot of pain from bug bites.
Hey guess what. Your body can't process pain and itchy at the same time. It doesn't work lmao
Then why doesn't slapping my arm make the itch go away? @@TheDsRequiem
Know what else works that you already had? Isopropyl alcohol. Put it on a rag, scratch the bite with that rag for a couple secs, and it goes away.
It sent my brother to the hospital
I would always go with Lori, simply due to the fact she has brought more smalls businesses presented in shark tank success and kept them going than any of the other guys.
She's also the one Shark you'd imagine having a romantic tryst with.
She seems to be more in touched with reality and help her entrepreneur succeed.
Having watched this video 17 times already, i can say with confidence this is a certified sharktrioc classic

as someone who only has 1 1/2 year of semi professional cooking experience the knifes are absolutely an amazing business idea, knife are a craft and kind of gatekept
is it difficult to sharpen the knives on your own in terms of the time/experience needed? i know there's levels to it but I'm wondering just how much of a difference it is to sharpen on ur own compared to mailing ur knife and waiting for it to come back
@@DannyKim101 no not at all you just need the proper equipment and shown how to do it and then it’s a skill you have, it also usually takes 30 mins for a decent kept chefs knife and for a badly kept one (the majority) 45 mins-1 hour
It's not a new thing at all.
When I saw that I was skeptical, cuz it seems like their only customers would be like restaurants or other places that have a lot of knives they use often and need to be sharpened, and they don’t have the time or equipment to do it in house? But also aren’t restaurants usually equipped with that stuff and chefs know how to sharpen knives?
Because surely for personal home use, it’s just cheaper to buy a whetstone or that sharpening bar thing and watch a UA-cam vid on how to sharpen than to pay and send your knives away every time right?
@@jjwang7597 most restaurants will hire a knife sharpener to come in and sharpen the knives, the cooking staff is not normally responsible for that. It doesn't really make much sense for a restaurant to use this though because you need your knives to be ready in a couple hours, not however long it would take to mail them
Lori is great because you get a marketing channel with the investment. No amount of tweets from Mark can match a late night infomercial.
Mark does a lot of marketing too. He appears on countless podcasts, his media presence is great and when he puts whatever athletic products in the Mav's locker rooms or stadiums, they sell in huge huge numbers.
When they pair up, they have the biggest range of audience.
The sharks would definitely beg to be a part of OFFBRAND
i can’t wait for the day when my boss offers me a golden ticket instead of a raise
Aint too bad
gold isn't cheap, it would basically be a bonus worth it's weight. i certainly would only complain about the condescending manner that she gave it.
@@jeremy85it's not like they'd give a 10 pound bar or something
@@octilli ''worth it's weight''
Depending how much gold by weight it is, I would absolutely take it. One ounce of gold is probably more than 75% of peoples paychecks or even monthly incomes.
He's literally called Chef Wonderful, Big A. You GOTTA let him cook man.
LET HIM COOK
Knife sharpening by mail is a legitimately good business.
And the company has done pretty well after that. I think the sharks got their money's worth
im baffled, sharpening a knife is like a 4 minute max thing
When the sharks fight over your business , you might as well take the recording of the episode for promo and ask for a bank loan yourself.
I understand that 2 business women want the goated Lori on their team.
But why did they value their company for so little? They could have asked for 5 times as much and it would still have been such an amazing deal.
BigA : "I was worried Oleary lost his edge". That pun cut me in half.
It’s clear that Lori is a viewer of the masterpiece “The Quarter 6 Gambit.” How else could she have pulled off such a move?
Great video Atrioc! I really appreciated the anaylasis of these complex buisness investments! I did not murder a family of 4 in 1998.
Nice
👍
What is this, Hivemind?
@@jackbreuhaus6244 i actually stole this bit from the hivemind comments yeah 💀
What makes the golden ticket even funnier is every pitch is at least two people, she didnt even get enough props made for each of the people.
Crazy how Lori seems to get the bag somehow.
shes got qvc, a cheatcode for businesses
@@zeroday7878 what is a QVC
Real talk tho, I would clap them cheeks
@@Karan-Aujla the shopping channel which is basically a tv channel that is just 100% ads for products they usually show off how the product works
@@bigboyskills thanks matey!
Glad to see Atrioc back at the well that built his career. Love the emotional rollercoaster on this one
i dead ass swear by the bug bite thing after working at a summer camp the past 6 years
The knife sharpener idea sounds like it could be big. Dollar shave club practically does that and its a big industry.
What ! Come on dollar shave club does so much more!
I think it makes zero sense. Why mail off your knives? Just to go through the trouble and then missing them for a while. Also, if you don't care about knives, buy an auto-sharpener, and if you're really into knife care, you're going to learn it yourself anyway
@@FlamingZelda3 yeah I agree. I was more thinking about businesses that would use this. The average person wouldn't use this service.
@@FlamingZelda3 spot on, and people who care about knives are almost always eventually gonna learn to do it themselves
I'm kinda confused by the business concept. Maybe I'm just stupid, but wouldn't most people just use their at-home knife sharpener for day to day sharpening? Unless you have a super-special knife or a super-blunt one, I don't see people using a mail-in sharpening service all that much.
@@lunaangeleclipse9745 People don't realize that getting and using a pretty decent knife sharpener only takes $20 and 2 minutes
But even getting someone else to do it, I'd just bring it to the mf who sharpens chainsaws (usually a jeweler or hardware store)
Lori and Mark are literally the only 2 sharks that matter. Lori has QVC and Mark has the most money. Kevin just exists to be Mister Wonderful and cause drama, Barbara exists to say no, and the other 5th random person that shows up to to fill a seat.
They literally BEGGED 😂😂😂
I worked on Amazon business acquisition, saw more than 1000 companies and went through 80 deals, and tbh with their sales and margins, the Bug Bite Thing business should be valued WAY MORE than what Lori or the others proposed. I think the business owners would prefer having a shark for 2 reasons: 1/ publicity, 2/ Lori is amazing for multiple reasons. But they wouldn't want diluting their shares too much. So despite Lori's deal not being the best in share price, this leaves the owners with more shares after the deal, which is I think better on a long term basis.
For anyone who wants to deal with mosquito bites, heat neutralizes the substance that causes the itch (at least that's what i think happens according to a search i did ages ago). You can use a the side of lighter flame for a brief second (the top will be hotter) if you don't care about the smell of singed hairs, a warm tea/coffee cup that is hot enough to warm you but not burn you also works, apply it to the bite for a little bit and it should cease being itchy if you've done it right. There are pen shaped things that you can buy online that literally just apply the right amount of heat but any kind of heat that doesn't replace the bite with a burn will be just as good.
Would hand warmers work or does it have to be hotter?
@@dajuanvera-byers6788 i've never used one ever tbh so i'm not sure. The type of heat i tend to use is potentially excessive but the type of heat I go for is :holding a hot mug not by the handle it's hot but it won't immediately burn you but you feel like it will if you hold it for a few seconds longer. I'd guess the necessary heat is just under what could cause a minor burn. You don't want to hold it on for too long it's and best to do this when it's cooled for a bit and it takes about 10-15 secs to reach the "this might hurt if i hold it any longer" moment.
I normally put a spoon under hot water and it’s gets hot enough for mosquito bites.
@@dajuanvera-byers6788 they should definitely work but don't hold it on too long, they can burn you
@@TR1CK i've tried the spoon but I always overheat it
I've never watched an episode of Shark Tank in my life but I love these highlight videos of them with Atrioc's jokes/insight.
As an owner of a bug bite thing, I can confirm they are really helpful.
It does feel at this point like Lori's strong track record with identifying successful businesses to make deals with has made her surprisingly balanced with Mark Cuban's raw money and advertising potential. It's kind of twofold because the people who go on shark tank might see her as making businesses succeed, but also, anyone who *watches* shark tank probably wants to buy any product she makes a deal with since they all seem to turn out good. So it really is smart to make a deal with her.
Also their business is doing so well that I don't think they mind giving Lori 10% lol, they became (deserved, since their product apparently is super fucking awesome) millionaires over it....
It'd be cool to see you react to Dragon's Den, (UK version of shark tank) and see some of the more popular or famous products on there.
The British version, named Dragon's Den, makes more sense, because Dragons are described as hoarding wealth in various stories whereas Sharks don't hoard wealth...
I would disagree. We know that the people in those shows are rich. But the actual show isn't about their wealth, it's about pitching. Which "Shark Tank" at least fits somewhat better. The person "pitching" is the prey in a tank, the rich people the "sharks". The sharks are fighting over the prey.
Big A unknowingly acts like a shark when reacting to these it’s hilarious 😂😂
Another Big A classic, already watched this video 100 times
7:22 the Knife aid would be useful for large kitchens, and restaurants.
Bro Kevin O' Leary shifted his entire mood once Lori was interested. He was shitting on the company and then started to put in the big bucks.
Lori having QVC is just OP in the Shark Tank meta
I look forward to a future Netflix documentary about a serial killer who mailed all his knives in to Knife Aid for sharpening.
The bug bite thing is like a snake bite venom removal thing, and they don’t actually suck anything out. Not saying it won’t work, but it’s not “sucking” anything out.
I don't understand "Knife Aid" like why would you go through the trouble of mailing your knives and then not having them for a few days. If you don't care too much, just buy an auto sharpener, and if you're really into knives, just learn how to do it properly! Who is this for?
Witnessing the Golden Ticket Gambit on stream was jokes, needs to made into a sub emote
Lori goes "pwetty pwease ill give you TWO thumbs up!!! ;)" and they always go for it
i do miss daymond saying im out too i cant lie
I was waiting for Chef Wonderful to run to his dressing room to fetch his 4k Katana to sway away the deal.
Mark is fucking hilarious lmao
I actually think the Golden Ticket thing is pretty dope. This show just acts as advertising for the shark's own branding, and that's a pretty cool little brand image thing for Lori
Mark: "$4000-"
Company owners: " and for that reason we are out"
12:37 I was going to say it's like giving a treat to a dog come on take the ticket that's a good girl come on good girl
If big a was in the shark tank he would have drank all the coffee before the sharks did, Making them slower than the cow 🗿. Easy w for the largest A
Chef wonderful and the $4,000 blade was just Kevin’s attempt at the golden ticket move 😂
Why the fuck was the bug bite thing even on shark tank. That business prolly makes more money now than all the sharks combined lmao.
Lori has that GRINDSET, that HUSTLE, maybe even possibly that… GRUSTLE???
The bug bite thing.. i'm confused, if they are doing such high numbers (800k this year, projected 2 mil next year), why the F do they need a measly 150k.. for TEN PERCENT.. what? How... why? Nobody asked them what they need the money for? I.. don't get it.. it makes no sense..
A lot of companies just come on the show for advertising and either don't take a deal or cancel the one they do take once they're off the show floor
Knife sharpening is actually really difficult and it's hard to find good local knife sharpeners. That business has so much potential.
i have worked in a single kitchen with 8 chefs they all had shur or wushtof knife sets. they waited weeks with dull knives ( using disposable shop knives ) for the guy in a van to come by and sharpen their knives. if they advertise in food and culinary magazines they would kill it as long as they have an excellent reputation for a sharp longlasting edge.
The bug bite thing is actually goated. I use it and it works
Oh my fucking god, the "LET HIM COOK!" in response to Chef Wonderful.
knife sharpening services do already exist, it just works better in a commercial setting because those are consistent customers, normal people dont sharpen their knives at all., there is also much less risk in a commerical setting beause commercial applications will use a standard knife making them way easier to just replace if you accidentally break one. a homecook who is willing to pay for knife sharpening services as a home cook probably dont have an off the shelf knife you can buy in bulk. like the place i work at literally gets our knives from the sharpeners so if one breaks theyre literally buying one from their own suppliers at discount
I hate FTX as much as the next guy, but Kevin's magic pen line actually won me back (11:44). Chef Wonderful strikes again!
please make more episodess I freaking love those
genuinely one of the greatest episodes i’ve seen
I don’t beg or grovel, I’m a fkn shark 😂😂😂 what a savage
I FUCKing laughedx so hard on the golden ticket gambit Like imagine just making a card wrapped in gold tinfoil for this exact situation what the HELLLLLL
IMO bug bite thing doesn’t work but Beurer Insect Bite Healer is a tiny ultra hot heater that destroys the saliva with heat. Never used anything like it, totally blows my mind
Check the outfits, THESE WERE RECORDED THE SAME DAY. LORI WAS ON ONE THAT DAY!
This is the only time I’ve ever seen Barbara not say I’m out
Fish Bowl
I love the light cringe but solid. Mosquito Mom is a fun pun.
I get why the bug people got lorie. It's not the golden ticket. It's her. You get Lorie on your team as a product and you're all but guaranteed to shoot off if you're working with her.
I would not want to go into business with Kevin, but I damn sure would bake a cake with him.
Golly, hands down GOOFIEST SHARK EPISODE IVE SEEN
that bug bite thing is a rip off We had a thing called "Aspivenin" since the 90s, granted we live in Europe, but they must have it there too, it even has attachments for larger stings or snake bites.
Kevin be like, “while you were making deals, I was studying the blade.”
Kevin is perfect for this deal since he is a tool.
Lori is crazy it’s just a Lori or Cuban show honestly lol
Barbara would go out there to tell them again that shes out, then come back.
3:14 “the fact that you own a katana and sharpen it with a pumice stone is not an edge here.” Well…. Technically it is an edge
Yessss I’ve been missing seeing the hidden shark, big A in the tank! So glad you could join us!
Having just watched this episode and now see your 1yr old video, you left out that the owners had a HUGE track record. I think the guy on the left started and at the time still owned Happy Socks
Kevin “Hattori Hanzo” O’Leary
no, this company idea is literally genius. when i first saw their pitch i knew if they did even a half decent job they could become millionaires
You use the dryer sheets to PREVENT bites by the way! It really has worked well for my family at least.
Maybe you have done this on Twitch, and I am a simple YT frog, but I would for you to do a deep dive analysis of Shark Tank at some point. Really deep dive on the sharks, what types of products do the best on the show (during pitch and after), and just a general sum up of your thoughts. Think it would be really interesting
Mr. Wonderful:
I’ve known this beautiful company since Kamikoto from the start!
Lori pulled out the uno reverse
Edit: *I died when Barbra "bruh'd"*
do you guys in amerika litterally didn't know there was a bugbite thing ages ago in europe
FYI the golden ticket works every time I’ve seen it
The Mr Wonderful magic pen moment would be funny... but he actually believes its a magic pen.
Kevin is an excellent businessman on all the shows, he is always in the center. Shark Tank, Dragon’s Den, The Den !! More than likely they are his concept
Wouldn't the bug bite thing actually have to suck hard enough to suck blood out of you to get the allergens out as well?
“I think you are being very aggressive in what you’re asking, but I like greedy people” LMFAO
The two most powerful weapons of all time, Laurie's Golden Ticket vs. Mr. Wonderful's $4000 blade
Damn a 4k samurai blade is waaaaaay cooler than a .3 inch golden ticket
Lori killing the competition. I want to try the Bugbite Thing now
