Specialty Knives Reviews

This knife is great for hard cheeses, I can cut them without the slices crumbling to pieces. It feels very comfortable and sturdy in my hand like my other Global knife. The blade has a serrated edge so you will not be able to sharpen it easily, but if you only use it for cheese, it should stay sharp for a long time. This is another beautiful Global knife.

This beautiful Global knife comprises all distinctiveness of that great brand, including the price though ...
It is great for semi-hard and hard cheeses (although I would not strongly recommend it for Parmesan cheese, despite that it worked fine for me, since Wustohof parmesan cheese knife is appreciably more efficient for that purpose). Don't pay much attention on those that tell You advices such as that other [less expensive] imitations with similar shape would do the same job (I tried several of those prior I got Global). On the other hand, don't expect this knife to do a good job for soft cheeses.
Global knifes need a tad amount of attention and care, and in return beside superb design and balance (of course, which is an individual thing) are very thankful and durable. So if You are not cheese addict and prepared to give this knife care that it needs, then rather buy something else (cheaper that You can toast and replace after short time) - but of course, You won't know what You are missing ...

This knife is terrific. It cuts through meat and veggies with equal ease, and is large enough to handle even tough jobs like squash and celeriac. A note on TableTools.com -- I ordered this and was charged $14.25 for shipping and handling. This may be reasonable but you may also want to shop around first before buying.

I purchased this electric knife it described some nice features. Unfortunately it needs a lot of improvement.
First of all the spacer that is included is medium/soft plastic. It does not lock into place so you have to be careful with slicing as it looks like it would shift. I could not get a uniform slice, as the spacer bends outwards while cutting as well.
I carved the following and found it difficult to slice through. I tried to slice turkey breast, honey baked ham, and hard salami with the spacer on and off. The knifes are not sharp enough, or needs more power. The storage for the knives is a good feature, but I personally do not recommend this product.

I have two different electric knives. One is with a straight shaft and the trigger under the front. The Hamilton Beach has a handle over the main shaft with a trigger on top of that handle. I find this considerably more difficult and awkward to use. I love carving with electric knives and recommend its use for turkeys, hams, homemade bread, and other meats.

I have used many Hamilton Beach products and I find them very reputable. Before this we had a toastmaster knife for two months but it was terrible. This hamilton beach is very sharp and powerful, i told all my relatives to get one too and they love theirs. I highly recommend it. It is great on roasts, chickens, turkeys everything.
