>>106648714So a sharp dildo?
>>106648714at that price I probably wouldn'tbut if it works well enough I could see it being a viable product
why do tech bros always be like:>let me make murder weapons but it has a cpu inside

>>106648714i dont think so
>>106648714>can't see, hear or feelcertified snake oil
>>106648714The question isn't would i buy this but where do i buy it
Nah bud I ain't got 400 dollars to blow on a kitchen knife maybe if I had more money than sense gettin paid beaucoup bucks to MKULTRA every living soul with a smartphone to scroll endless ads on some content aggregation platform full of AI sloppa and women of questionable morals shilling scams and knick knacks in spandex. Then I would rationalize a four hundred dollar smart knife to flex on insta and inspire envy like some kinda Bay Area Patrick Bateman.
>>106648714Vibrating knives have been a thing for decades, they work well but only for relatively hard, brittle materials. Most kitchen tasks won't see any benefit. Would work great on crusty bread or bones, tho.
I like my knives to not require batteries, thanks
I like my knives stabbing the British, thanks
>>106648714>blows ur dogs eardrums out
this dude sounds like AI
>>106648714I watched some of the video. A properly sharpened knife will give you the same results. Techbro nonsense makes me roll my eyes so hard. Also, you aren't necessarily supposed to push chefs knives directly down like a cleaver unless you're chopping something, they're designed to slice with a kind of rocking motion.
>>106648714>normal knives go bluntSo just fucking sharpen it? Even if you want to be absolute through, it should take like 30 seconds tops
>>106649042not everyone can afford an electric knife sharpener
>>106648714>accidentally drop the knife>its vibrates trough earth goes to the other side of the planet and fly away to space
>>106649053so he buys a $400 knife instead, got it
>>106649053A good automatic knife sharpener is like $200 tops. I have one and it sharpens everything including scissors. Still less costly than this dumb techbro toy.
>>106649073perfectly fucking vertical

>>106649088nerve damage from vibration is a thing, but I don't know the state of research on the effects of ultrasonics
If it was a good looking knife, it worked and came with an autocharging knife block, sure.The expired chinese patent for this :https://patents.google.com/patent/CN211761686U/en
>>106649124>turn on ultrasonics>the "silent" blade actually starts emitting subliminal coded messages
>>106649170the wireless charger is $100 extra
>>106649033>Also, you aren't necessarily supposed to push chefs knives directly down like a cleaver unless you're chopping something, they're designed to slice with a kind of rocking motion.If the vibration makes it act like a reciprocating saw even on a vertical push, then that stops mattering so much.

Is it dishwasher safe? I don't want to ask on HN because I know those tards refuse to put knives in the dishwasher (just like they refuse to put any metal in the microwave). My other reservation is there's no way it doesn't have electronic hum.
>>106650010>stainless steel>Made in Chinalead poisoning
>>106648750so they can gather data to sell
It is cheaper to buy one of these kits (400 and 1000 grit) for 20 bucks.
>>106648714is this like the high frequency blade in metal gear solid 2
It's the progressive knife
they will not stop until every single thing is rechargeable and connected
>>106648770NICE KNIFE
I hope it requires an app and monthly subscription (with ads too) to use it.No but for real if we need to put electricity into a cutting utensil then I'd rather go the route of lasers.

>>106648714>the ultrasoyic knife
so does it just cut without any force? i imagine a lot of severed fingers are in its future
>>106651901true. Japanese steel is fucking dogshit. They don't even have iron mines, just iron sand that washed up on shore lol.
>>106652066Knife injuries happen with blades that can't cut shit so people compensate with force then suddenly the blade goes further than expected
>>106649160>but I don't know the state of research on the effects of ultrasonicsabout the same as the effects of circumcision and pain when analgesia is used at the moment of the mutilation.
>>106648714>imagine the whitefinger lawsuit claims
>>106652098Yep and if you're cut by a dull knife, the wound will be a mess and much more prone to infection. with a sharp knife, the cut is nice and clean, which makes the cleaning and healing easier. All in all even a standard vg-10 knife and a pair of nice sharpening stones would be a much better investment then this thing if you're doing a lot of cooking/prep
>>106648714cartels need this asap
I just bought a Japanese sharpening stone and my knife cuts plastic like youtubers cut paper.

>>106648714why they didn't make the chopping board to vibrate instead?
>>106649160If I hold my finger in an ultrasonic water bath it starts causing tissue damage.t. very intelligent and smart science man
>>106648750>>106649033>>106649042>>106650061Techbros and modern capitalism is about making up a problem and then selling you the solution. If you take a course about entrepeneurship they always talk about finding problems and coming up with a solution but a lot of our modern day problems already have simple, affordable and reliable solutions so people have to come up with non-existent problems and then push that on everyone so they buy their solution. Unironically you're better of just making something that already exist and offer a good, reliable and trustworthy version of it instead if you're doing a startup. The most successful startup guys I've known are people running like cleaning companies and the like, not techbros.
>>106648714Just sharpen your knives.
>>106648714Does it need to be replaced every 6 months?
>>106648714It will vibrate at 80k times per second if you buy the $19.99 per month premium subscription.
>>106652892not to mention that the robot was primarily applying downward force instead of lateral slicing like a normal cut would beit's really clever dishonesty
>>106648771laser knives/tiny lightsabers sound way cooler than vibrating knives
>>106648741yah $40,000 is a lot of money for a kniife
>>106655274Why did you move the decimal over two places?
>>106653629>successful startup guys I've known are people running like cleaning companiesthat is a business not a startup. a startup is a type of company designed for rapid and massive growth. you get investment to go from no product or service to a large customer base (in revenue or cust. numbers) quickly. to scale rapidly. to increase company value.many people call new companies startups but they are incorrect in using that term.
>>106649033>son, you don't need those snakeoil gadgets; just have a full set of japanese whetstones, diamond-encrusted plates, and hone + strop your 300x folded japanese blade after every cut

>>106652066no, about 50% less force
>>106655293i'm not paying $4,000,000 for your knife, sorry
>>106648714this nigga name is heimerdinger
>>106656753I expect the Chinese factory that produces these will be running parallel production and you'll be able to pick it up on aliexpress for $30 in about a month kek
>>106657063this, if you get 80% the performance, while running at say 21Khz instead of 40K, the value proposition dies
If a girl put the handle in her pussy and turned it on would it feel amazing or hurt her?
>>106657131I checked aliexpress and they have a ton of ultrasonic cutting tools at, surprise surprise, 40k. They're just smaller hand tools, not a knife. This guy 100% is using one of these manufacturers to make his. Probably making like 80% margins on reselling it. I think he knows time is short and that's why he's charging $400 to ride the pump before the Chinese dump.
>>106648714i unironically like this, great idea.but wouldnt buy.
>>106648750>murder weaponsNigel pls
>>106648714No. My knife works just fine.
>>106650296it was based on engineers looted from germanynow that they are all dying of old age, we get shit like cardboard drones dropping hand grenades and 6 trillion USD wasted on a text auto-complete engine
>>106657063Read>>106649170China already had a patent on this over a decade ago. The patent has expired, so now people are making their own (making, as in buying from China, and dropshipping it to the west).This shit has always existed. People just didn't buy them. This guy is trying to rebrand Chinese knives and pretend it's "wow western innovation!!!" and try to get them sold at $400 a pop before the public becomes aware that they were also a thing but never popular.Nobody will be talking about this knife in 2026.
>>106648714
>>106652892also dummy didn't think about it just being a vibrating attachment for your knife/dildo etc
>>106657652BULLSEYE
it doesnt really make sense unless you have a handle that vibrates and you can attach a bunch of different knives to itId want to test out like how it fares removing silverskin from meat using a thin knife, or serrated knife for tomatos, maybe a very small fruit knife for carving decorations
>>106648850tbf, knoifes is an snakeoil heavy industry anyway. From the little I can as essortain, on a par with HiFi.
>>106648714>now you can slice off your finger without thinking about it
>>106648714No, I would have a knife made out of obsidian instead because it cuts much sharper and cleaner than metal.
>>106648714I like to pretend to be a Samurai when I cut food stuffs in the kitchen and that would feel weird if I had to insert a battery into my knife and press down a button. Also, who in the hell cuts by just pressing down a blade without any sawing motion? Ultrasonic knifes make sense on cutting machines that can only move on one axis but my arms have more degrees of freedom so I don't just move the blade into the object like a moron.Learn knife skills instead, it's not that hard.This might be a nice product for people with disabilities but regular people don't need this.I would totally play with it if I happen to get one into my hands but I doubt I would be tempted to add this kind of gimmicky tool to my kitchen arsenal.
>>106655302i dont really care about your pedantic distinctions when talking about cancer.
>>106658589It cuts well once, because it's brittle as fuck.
ultrasonic is common in industrial food production, the vibes stop the product sticking to the blade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzBP6MJXOTs
>>106658796yeah he showed those in the OP vid
>>106657848the way the vibration propagates depends a lot on the geometry of the blade
>>106657359cardboard is just engineered wood>>106657979most mishaps come from knives that are terrible at cutting
>>106653629I've heard that silicon valley is basically hooked on hypergrowth markets so everyone is trying to brute force tech revolutions all the time. There's little investor interest for just making a better mousetrap
>>106648714I paid more than that for a jap chef knife forged by some guy that makes swords.

>>106648714on some lines i help build we do use an vibrating blade to cut web etc
>>106648714I'll pass.
>>106661892lol'd
>>106648714100% chance these guys never even talked to a chef when designing this.
>>106669738100% chance these guys lied about their research. It's just a fancier version of the young genius inventor scam.
>>106648714That's pretty cool but if you know how to actually use a knife it isn't really an improvement. You already put the knife in motion when you cut, you push it forward or pull it back, that smooth pulling or pushing motion is the same effect as this knife's fluctuations. The only thing this knife is a lot better at is cutting straight down, which nobody does because that's not how you use a knife. When you use a normal knife properly it is already a frictionless cut.I do appreciate that food doesn't stick to the knife, that is useful, but ultimately it won't perform any better than a decent traditional knife if you know how to use it properly.
>>106670067What if the knife is vibrating AND you try cutting like a normal knife?
>>106658796Yeah the guy took existing industrial technology and put it in a consumer knife where it isn't nearly as useful. The only reason it is useful in industrial settings is because it simplifies the machinery, the blade doesn't need to travel laterally to cut properly, and also the non-stick.
>>106670105It would barely make a difference because the microabrasions on the edge of the blade are doing the same thing already when you drag the blade across whatever it is you're cutting. I'm a butcher by trade so I know well enough that even a cheap shitty knife if sharpened properly is virtually frictionless already.
>>106670067it seems to be nice for cutting soft cake without smushing it
>>106670338Yeah that's due to the non-stick feature which is actually useful, a normal knife squishes cake because it sticks to the sides.
>>106648714No, even if I wanted to spend that kind of money on a good knife, the guy seems like a huge jew faggot.

>>106649053>not everyone can afford an electric knife sharpenerI got my knife sharpener at Daiso for 100 yen. It's not electric, it's just a little plastic thing with a whetstone wheel inside
>>106670067>When you use a normal knife properly it is already a frictionless cut.counterpoint: most normies don't have good knives that offer this experience, which is why there's so many gimmick knives on the market. op device is yet again retarded techbros with no experience of the world create a solution to a problem they only have because they are ignorant.>>106670338case in point. use either the point of the knife to begin your cut and then slice outward, or slice across from the start like a pizza. or use a serrated knife as you would for bread. niggas really out here saying they're the future of everything and they can't even cut a fucking cake on their own
I got a ~$60 chefs knife and a $20 sharpener. I'm good
>>106650010I have one of these things. It's not the UK one, but looks almost identical with the same kind of advertising.>World's sharpest>Gauranteed forever>You break, we send you a new one for freeI found it deep in a kitchen cabinet.I tried it and it's actually a great bread knife so I kept it.It's one of the gifts left in this house to me by the previous owner, who went insane and was locked up in the looney bin.
>>106649053>buy a 400$ knife instead of a 150$ electric sharpeneralso if you were slightly less of a moron you can get a whetstone for 10$ or one of those manual sharpeners thats basically a bunch of interlocking washers for even less (technically its a honer but it's probably made of harder stuff than your knife so it'll work in a pinch)

>>106673322>will it cut paper/hairI can get my chef's knives sharp enough to do paper but they really aren't meant for grooming. That is always a funny thing, watch this knife cut cardboard! It can shave your dog! Now we'll cut a can in half! Look, it still cuts a tomato! This says nothing of the knife's ability to cut 100 tomatoes, or move from veg to meat. It's an ergonomics issue, which is at least as /g/ as the metallurgy involved.
