How does this compare to the electric carving knives?
- thrill 1y agoWatch the video.
- rkagerer 1y agoIt's not obvious at first in the video, but they pre-cut a flat base into the plum to stabilize it on the table, and are cutting in at a slightdownward angle. I feel like you could make nearly the same shot with a regular knife. Tricks like this (and the deliberate filming angles to obscure those details) make the video seem disingenuous and come across akin to a snakeoil sales pitch, which detracts from my genuine interest in how the ultrasonic tech fares. The shot of the scale showing force as they cut through a tomato was more compelling. I notice after the initial breach, when the knife is about halfway through, the forces are equal again. I assume that's due (at least in part) to friction between the inside of the tomato and the wide, side of the blade. Do they make a skinnier vibro-blade, or something like an ultrasonic cheese cutting wire?
- horacemorace 1y agoUltrasonic cheese wire is an awesome companion idea!
- goopypoop 1y agoor a sonic cheese wire for chirping cheery tunes while chopping chunks of cheese
- esafak 1y agoIt's ultrasonic; the frequency is much higher while the amplitude is much smaller.
- canucker2016 1y agoThe video mentions that the knife vibrates over 40000 times per second.
