I've seen this knife on YouTube. It vibrate at ultrasound frequency that makes it sharper than the blade really is and the ingredients don't stick to it, or so they claim. If it really does perform as demonstrated, it's pretty cool, but still overpriced.

I'm getting flashbacks to the knife dildo from the movie "Seven."
probably NSFW
This scene
What the hell are you people doing buying this crap in the first place?
I'm convinced that much of, if not most of, society sees technology in our personal lives as a way to (ideally) not have to learn anything or put in one bit of extra effort.
I've been getting my hands dirty and doing more things myself over the past few years, and ya know sometimes the journey is more impactful on you as a person than the destination is. Learning things and interacting with the world around you is good.
Ultrasonic cutting tech is really cool tbh. That doesn't mean the fucking thing has to be internet connected and have firmware updates .
I don't care if it's sharp enough to kill a god, it's still not worth it if it needs WiFi access.
I unno killing a god is historically pretty damn expensive. Wifi access is a lot cheaper then your soul, first born, village or eternal damnation.
Internet of shit.
450euro for a ultrasonic vibrating knife.
They used to be one in the hotel that I worked at and it definitely didn't have an app or internet connection you just pressed the button and it did its thing. What's the firmware for?
Got to tell the advertising firm and the government how you cut your bread.
Hello I’m a software engineer for this knife! Kitchenaid’s newest model, the Ultrasonic Edge™! It is forged with self-healing nano-steel from Japan, the blade can automatically correct small edge imperfections over time, keeping it razor sharp longer than a traditional knife. The button on the handle cycles through several prep modes to assist in slicing and dicing. My favorite is heated mode which heats the blade to 28 C to assist in slicing frozen meats and vegetables. The knife occasionally receives software updates through its charging block, adding new cutting profiles and improving its internal motion sensors that track hand positioning and cutting rhythm. Tiny embedded LEDs along the spine glow softly to indicate blade temperature, battery life, or sanitation status after UV self-cleaning cycles. If you don’t have access to internet we can send you a usb device to install the software updates remotely. If you have any questions feel free to ask!
God, I hope this is satire.
I mean, it's always worth having a couple of weird Bluetooth devices hanging around to hide passwords on when crossing borders.
I thought it had peaked when I had to put a hacked firmware onto my soldering iron
why not? just solder an on switch into it
i'm so behind times... why would anyone need firmware for a knife though? like for real - what do you accomplish with it?
Keeps it ultra sharp with blade angles calculated by the latest AI-generated honing algorithms.
