I truly liked the design of the Watermelon knife it was the perfect size to cut a large Water Mellon, Sharp and really did a nice job. I definitely recommend this product to everyone. FYI this is my second purchase of this product which I gave as a gift to someone who had admired the knife at one of the BBQ's we had hosted.
Can now cut watermelon without worrying about cutting myself, wife thought I was nut's until she tried it and now it hangs from her pot rack where it is easy for her to find. Great tool, Fast shipping and a fair price also a interesting conversation piece.
This knife is fabulous in cutting melons. It is very sharp and does a wonderful job of slicing watermelons. I would recommend this knife to everyone. I give it 5 stars.
Makes quick work of hard melons. Good balance and grip.

This knife cuts thrue tough watermelon as it is to cut through soft butter. I am very happy with my knife as always with anything I buy from the CHEF CATALOG.

I think a good slicer does just as well, but my wife likes it and I guess that's what counts.
You can use this knife year-round, without concern about damaging the sharp teeth. Slices right through anything with a tough rind. Go beyond vegetables and try slicing meat. The holes in the blade help ease the cutting.

It's sold as a "Melon knife" it it lives up to it's name. It saws through the tough outer rind of a watermelon easily. But I've also used it on other tough things, such as butternut squash and a couple of the other hard-skinned squashes and this knife handles them with ease.

It works great! And it looks cool too. The green handle, with the red blade. I had to laugh when I seen the seed holes cut out. But really, cute look aside, the knife really does work well.

How many times I have tried to cut a watermelon to only have the knife get stuck and have the watermelon move around on me. Not a very safe thing. Now no more worries cutting into that sweet summer surprise!
