can you use a sharp knife to cut with or will it harm the bottom

It will scratch the bottom - I don't think you can cut through and you will still be able to use the pan. It doesn't have a non-stick finish like teflon that you can chip off.

I think it will harm the bottom. I would not recommend using a sharp knife on this pan. Unless you don't care if it gets scratched. I don't think it would effect the quality of the pan if it was to get scratched accidently. WOULD NOT ADVISE USING A SHARP KNIFE ON THIS PAN.

I use sharp knives on them all of the time. It scratches them, but they (I have four) have held up for at least four years.

I used parchment paper on the bottom so all I had to do was loosen the sides of the cake. I loosened the sides gently with a non-serrated knife gently and doing that did not scratch the sides of the pan.

You'll definitely scratch the pan. Anodized aluminum is harder than regular aluminum, but not as hard as steel. In general, you should treat it the same way as a non-stick pan (i.e. use rubber or plastic utensils when possible).

It is a finished piece so I wouldn't cut it. You *could* cut from the bottom. I purposes this differently than as sold, so I can't answer the hardware question.

I have heard you can use an electric carving knife for a clean cut.Good luck!

No. It is very long and the bottom does not have a continuous cutting edge.

You can use regular scissors to cut it. Even children's craft scissors will work.

The way it works is you can cut it to any size smaller than the length it comes in. A saw would be ideal but I used an old serrated knife that I didn't need so didnt care about making it dull. For what it is it does the job!

You probably could cut on it with a knife, but I would not recommend it. It is a good tuff stainless steel but you will still probably scratch it up if you cut on it with a knife which could cause it to lose it smooth surface. If it looses that nice smooth surface, you will have a harder time cleaning it up and making it shine again. Hope this helps.

I don't think it would cut very well. It has a magnetic strip on the inside that is glued on so you would have to cut through that. The other material is a very hard plastic that might splinter

I certainly haven't tried it, but I see no reason why it could not be so. It is only two inches thick,so a sharp utility knife should do the job. Use a heavy straight edge, like a piece of lumber, to guide the cut. Happy sailing!

You can either use a sharp knife to cut it or use a cheese grater (which neither should be used for food prep again) to get a smaller amount for a lighter shade.

Yes, just get a metal cutting blade. Make sure you wear your safety goggles.

I don't think it would damage it if you cut a small notch in the bottom. Hard to say without pictures.

I would say absolutely not. The bottom has a cut in pattern with some painted, some bare metal, and there are some sharp edges there.

You could but probably wouldn't want to because a knife will leave marks. I would recommend you add a separate cutting board.

As soon as it doesn't seem to cut as well. PLEASE, get yourself a sharpening steel......what the chefs use. Works GREAT with just a few swipes! And PLEASE DO NOT PUT A GOOD KNIFE INT HE DISHWASHER!!!!!

I didn't need to cut mine but I'm sure U could cut it if U use very sharp scissors or a sharp knife.

Sure can. Make sure to use a high-quality ultra-fine finish blade when you rip it to width, and go slowly. You don't want to splinter the edges.
