A Philly Company With A Kid-safe Cardboard-cutting Saw, Will Appear On 'Shark...

Max Liechty and Kausi Raman can be seen pitching their kid-safe cardboard cutter on ABC's 'Shark Tank' at 8 p.m. Friday.

Philly entrepreneurs who created a kid-safe saw for cardboard will cut their teeth on tonight's episode of ⁘Shark Tank.⁘ 

On ⁘Shark Tank,⁘ entrepreneurs can ask for investments from business tycoons  Mark Cuban, Barbara Corcoran, Kevin O'Leary and Lori Greiner, in exchange for equity or a portion of sales. The investors can take the deal, strike a new one or pass completely.  Rashaun Williams, a limited partner of the Atlanta Falcons, will be a guest judge on tonight's episode. 

ChompShop saws are available online for $230.   Formerly known as InvenTABLE, t he company initially launched on online fundraising platform Kickstarter and was able to secure $1.18 million in a month's time from supporters. Already, the company has over 100,000 followers on both  Instagram and TikTok . 

⁘ Growing up, I always loved making things, but I wasn't exposed to real tools until my 20s,⁘ Raman said in a statement. ⁘Being able to build anything, or at least feel confident in my ability to learn, was so empowering. I wanted to create a toy that encourages kids — especially young girls — to get hands-on with projects from an early age, so I made one.⁘
