I shared this with my tech friends:
“This has all the hallmarks of a product that’s going to be disappointing but I’m so optimistic it won’t be.”
I’m seriously hopefuls it works because vibroblades (I mean, “progressive knives” and “high frequency blade”) are awesome and the timelines of Neon Genesis Evangelion and Metal Gear are getting closer. Which may, or may not be a good thing.
- SilverElfin 1y agoWell we know this tech works because there are already ultrasonic cutters in medical and industrial equipment. So it’s more about whether they implemented it well, rather than some new fundamental discovery.
- john_minsk 1y agoIs it realistic to have enough power in such a small form factor for this effect?
- SilverElfin 1y agoYes think of it as a more powerful electric toothbrush. There are actually already toothbrush sized ultrasonic knives you can buy online. This just applies the same tech to what largely looks like a normal chefs knife.

- slug 1y agoI got a wired (usb-c) ultrasonic cutter for around $100 (not this one), and it's amazing for cutting precise holes on electronic project boxes (plastic / abs).
