Hamilton Beach 74275 Chrome Classic Electric Knife with Case, Black

I shopped at many places and saw many electric knives before I decided to buy this set. I am so glad I waited to make my purchase. The knife is beautiful, and it makes a clean smooth cut. I am impressed with the quality for the price. I loved getting the matching serving fork as an extra in the set. I have used this knife on brisket, ribs, and a prime rib and I am totally satisfied. I highly recommend this set to any and all in need of a beautiful set that works.

We owned this knife for one day, then took it back.

The pros:

It's electric

The Cons:

I used it to carve a boneless cooked pork roast, turkey and pre-sliced ham. I didn't attempt to cut through bone or gristle.

Design: ergonomically poorly designed; poorly balanced, heavy in weight without being sturdy in performance or power; blades wobble even after being inserted properly and then reinserted just to make sure. The more you use it, the more they wobble.

Motor: Gives off a tremendous amount of heat making the unit almost difficult to hold; seems motor is underpowered.

On Button: If your hands get the least bit greasy it's very easy for your trigger finger and supporting fingers to slip dangerously close to the blades. I attribute this to the poor balance of the knife and poorly designed handle.

Recommendation: Don't buy this. Consider the Black & Decker slim line model, which I have owned in the past and intend to purchase again. My old B & D gave up the ghost after many years of service, primarily since I cut through some frozen desserts.

Although this knife looks good and cuts well, the trigger you pull when cutting is quite awkward and I found it difficut to cut any meat without feeling strain on my hand and arm. After carving a large roast I was exhausted! I don't recommend this product to anyone and threw it away.

Best looking knife that doesn't perform to suite me. Purchased as replacement for 15 year old knife worn out knife and saw a good review. Trigger is very awkward. If you have very large hands, you may like the size. It is good looking and has nice case but I do not reccomend for use.

I am a woman, and found this knife bulky to use, my arm was exhausted when cutting a roast. This knife has the knife release on the top, so when you are trying to cut, 1 finger is on the trigger, and your thumb fits right on top of the knife release, you had to think about moving your thumb away from that buttom, so it would not release while you are cutting. I may just throw it away and buy a more user friendly model.
