Thanksgiving Day was the first opportunity I had to try this product and thankfully I saved my old one, as this one will be thrown away. It seems the blades are built too far apart from each other, and when slicing, the meat clogs up in the space between and tears the pieces off the meat rather than slicing them off. I was ending up with a plate full of hunks and shreds of turkey instead of nice slices. This knife is a worthless joke so don't waste your money!
