Is this knife only for fish or can you use it to say carve hot meats like turkey?

I'm sure it would work well for that. We have not used it that way just because it is hard to keep it as sanitary as I would like it to be to cut already cooked meat. I do wash the handle and blades well after hard use at the lake.

I would think that this would work great on any meat.Electric knives usually are wide blades with blunt tips, where these are narrow and pointed tipsallowing for increased flexibility.

I don't know but it is terrible on fish. I would think you can get a turkey electric knife for a lot less than $150. I would not buy it again even for $50.

I would use a regular fillet blade to fillet fish. Would not use an electric knife.

you can, but i would not recommend it, this is designed for pastry and other baking needs; you will dull and ruin your knives very quickly if you decide to use this to cut veggies and meat;

No, it's just an exacto-knife that gets hot. It's good for cutting/melting through plastic with precision. Not what you want for carpet. Better off with a utility knife.

I wouldn't think that would be safe. I used a double bladed electric carving knife like you'd carve a turkey with. Worked great!

I have only used it to carve a turkey and a ham and it worked fine. I have never used it to cut raw meat

It is sharp, and should cut meat, but as for sharpening, since it is a serrated blade, it would take special precautions. The serrations are large so easier than if they were tiny.

I don't know I only used it for meat. It worked very well for me. I gave it to my sister and now she uses it.

I'm sorry I have only used it to cut veggies and non meat stuff on, so I have never heated it.

It would work for brisket or any kind of meat except that since it has a serrated edge they do not cut as cleanly as I like for a knife to. It would not work for cutting around bones. As for sharpening, that would be very difficult. I have never sharpened a serrated edge knife. I suppose it could be done with a chain saw file if you could find one with the same size serrations but I would not consider it. It might could be done with small diameter wooden dowels wrapped in sandpaper but they would be so small as to make them to fragile to be usable. Consider this not able to be sharpened. There is a large slicing knife on here that would be better suited for your needs and it can be sharpened.

I don't do woodcarving. I have used it on very rare occasions to clean fish. My guess if you're going to use it while manipulating very small pieces of wood it probably wouldn't work for you. But if you're carving wooden lures it might be worth a look.

As a BBQ Brisket knife - maybe. I am a baker and it is by far the greatest utensil when it comes to cutting loafs of bread and the tops off of cakes. I have not had to sharpen it. I hope I helped.

It is about 8" long. It actually comes with two blades. One is pointed filet style and the other is rounded tip like a bread knife. Both work ok for carving meat. We use ours every Thanksgiving to carve our turkey and it works great! Happy shopping.

I gave this requested gift as a wedding present. Didn't study it very hard. I don't think it had a serrated edge, so I don't think it would do raw beef or similar meats. I've used one very similar on chicken tenders , though I usually use scissors on small raw meats like that.

I have used it to cut steaks, chicken cutlets. I have not cut fish let with it. It works greats so far with all.
