Can this knife be used to cut raw red/white meat , seafood ?

I haven't used this one on raw meat or fish but with our old electric knife, my husband used to filet fish. He said this knife would work well to do that also. Hope this helps...

Haven't tried it for that. Think it would but perhaps Hamilton Beach will say.

I have only used it to carve a turkey and a ham and it worked fine. I have never used it to cut raw meat

Yes. I would recommend you have two blocks. One for chilling items and one for cooking. I use the cooking one often and find that salmon, scallops, shrimp and veggies do really well. I have better recipes for red meat, tried but was not happy with results. Try sea salt caramels on a chilled block.

No, this knife is difficult to operate easily. I would try a different brand that specifically states its use on thick rind foods. Best wishes. Angelica

you can, but i would not recommend it, this is designed for pastry and other baking needs; you will dull and ruin your knives very quickly if you decide to use this to cut veggies and meat;

The blade is serrated and very sharp. I use it to fillet fish and it easily cuts through rib bones. I am not aware of a tool for sharpening serrated knives.

The knife fits your hand, but that's not why I think it's the best there is. It's a much faster running fillet knife. You will clean fish so much better with it than any other fillet knife. Less meat loss.

I wouldn't recommend it, this electric knife is not durable enough or powerful enough for cuting bone. A handheld knife might be better because I have yet to find a strong enough electric knife for this.

It work as well as any knife for those tasks. It's design however, makes it super for slicing foods like cheese which tend to stick to the blade while cutting. So for me, that is what I use mine for. Great on fresh mozzarella.

I certainly haven't tried it, but I see no reason why it could not be so. It is only two inches thick,so a sharp utility knife should do the job. Use a heavy straight edge, like a piece of lumber, to guide the cut. Happy sailing!

I don't know. I gave this to someone as a gift. I do know that it slices meat excellent.

I would like to know also....Could it also slice raw beef? I want thin slices for a dish.

You absolutely can. I however like my fingers where they are. This tool doesn't have a sharp edge so it is much safer and easier to use since it is shaped like the coconut. Most times the meat comes out of each half intact, in a matter of a couple minutes I have all of it out and I am done. Before when I used a regular knife it took forever and I frequntly injured myself or broke the knife.

It would definitely do well with those things, but it's like killing a Cardinal with a shotgun... You don't need something this sharp to do those tasks. Also, you risk dulling the knife cutting carrots with it. If you use it for sushi, you want it to stay sharp.

My husband uses this to filet all of the fish he catches. He says it is the most durable knife he has ever used and it cuts very thin pieces of small fish so it should work on meat, but he's never used it other than on fish so....

I have only used with ground meat. I would think it would be ok if the meat was sliced thin.

I think so. My young chefs use this to coarsely cut tomatoes, cucumbers, apples, etc. (not possible with our butter knives.) The blade is not very long, but it is effective as a knife for young cooks and the handle is perfectly sized for a smaller hand. We have used this for months now, and it is still as sharp as when we got it, without actually sharpening the blade.
