does it work for cutting watermelon?

I bought it specifically for slicing corned beef and other meats. I have not tried it on a watermelon.

I'm sure it would, but I don't think you need such a special knife to cut watermelon. I use mine primarily for cutting meat into consistently thin slices.

You don't want to use a blade like this for watermelon. It is designed for fine-slicing meats. For watermelon I would recommend a heavier blade such as a Dexter-Russell machete-style. For watermelon it would be a waste of money to buy a high quality knife when a heavy, more brittle steel blade works better.

If you put a proper cutting edge on it, you would be able to cut a watermelon in half. Out of the box, it was amazingly sharp, but I'm uncertain if it would be possible to cut a watermelon in half. I know it did wonders on Willow Saplings.

I use it to make salsa. I cut up tomato's, onions, and peppers. Works awesome for cutting up these veggies to a salsa consistency.

Absolutely! My husband uses it to cut cheddar almost exclusively, and it works great. We really love the knife.

Yes. I don't think this will be the right tool. It only cuts in circles and is hard to cut where it breaks evenly.

How would this stack up against a watermelon.This is no toy.Its well built and if you wanted to this could take a guys head off.This is a very deadly weapon. Hope this gets the point across.It would cut a watermelon in half with one light swing its very sharp,as sharp as a lot of knifes.

It wouldn't surprise me if it could do it, but I want my peeler to last more than few months, and I'd be worried about cutting myself by using a peeler to do that. I just use a chefs knife to do squashes.

It might work for cucumber slices if the cucumber is small otherwise I don't think it would be very convenient for that purpose.

I doubt if it would cut metal as it doesn't sheer it just chops. You would need a metal sheer for that.

I don't think so. The cutter only work for very thin materials. Probably very very thin layer of fruit. I returned the item because the rice does not come out easily.

Yes. I use it for ice cream, watermelon and cantaloupe. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.

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.

Not sure. I cut up fruit and veggies and all that comes out is ground up. I do cut up the pieces small and put very little in and don't push hard. I think it works quite well for the price.

no, and after this broke after 6 months, I had to throw it out. I am really a fan of what I have used to replace it, which slices through lemons and oranges like butter Swissmar Borner V Power Mandoline, V-7000. I think it's worth the cost, (much higher cost, but warrantied) really, as the blade is so much more durable than this one.

Hi, yes I have, it was fine. The slicer works well with most vegetables, softest I have found to be cucumber.

No it is meant to cut wood. I would try a hacksaw with a metal cutting blade.
