Had no problem with several dead wild pigs. Just remember not to be hesident or it'll splinter. Wear gloves and goggles

Geez I don't know about that. Maybe if they make such a thing as a fine tooth chainsaw blade that's more like the teeth on a hacksaw or band saw. I guess you could always breakout the Reciprocating saw with a metal blade that would surely do the job on the bone.

Probably Not ! While it does a nice job on meats vegies etc... I wouldn't use it for bones. Someone answered use a metal grinder would probably be the best answer for what you want to do

I purchased this grinder to do the same thing. I've had no trouble at all with chickens, bones and all. The manufacturer says it will handle turkey and rabbit bones and all. It is very heavy-duty and powerful. Though I haven't tried anything but chicken yet, I have no doubt it will work. I put the meat/bones through twice. Once with the large-hole die and once with the small-hole. You have to clean the bone pieces out to keep the meat moving through efficiently, but you'd have that with any grinder. I love this grinder and would buy it again.

It might cut through it (or hot butter), but it isn't much good for anything else. I would use a knife.

Yes, but I recommend chopping them into small pieces and never use the joints. Grind them through several times with meat in small batches and be sure to go through each batch for shards. Chicken bone splinters pretty easily and you sure don't want that in your pet food. I bought this grinder for the same reason and if you use it carefully and get the hang of it, it's an excellent machine. I was surprised by the power and quality of it for the price. I am still happy with my purchase.

Yes you can. It's like a hot knife through butter when cutting foam. Worth every penny for us. We used it to cut out for horses.

Yes, they do an excellent job cutting bones. Mine are almost two years old with no issues!

It may do it,but I would not recommend putting bones through any meat grinder,it would be hard on any cutting knife.I hope this helps.Thanks Randy

Yes, it is small enough and sharp - not pointy. Ceramic knives would not be good to use on bones - they break and dull easily if used on hard objects. On the other hand, they are wonderful to use to slice vegetables, tomatoes, potatoes, etc. I especially love the larger one. It is my favorite. Hope this helps.

Ew and Yuck! Not sure. I wouldn't expect it would cut anything wet too easily. The greener the tree - the harder it is to cut through it so I suppose fresh bone would act the same.

Yes!!! Most assuredly! I haven't used it for grinding bones as stated it will do, but it hasn't slowed down with any of the wild game I have thrown in it. I would buy another tomorrow! I love, love it.

Read the review that I wrote, (the address is below), but to the point at hand (pun intended), is very sharp, would be good for cows or something, the diameter of the needle is no more than 1 mm. (I think it is more like .8 mm.) then it go's to a share point at the tip.

I haven't used it yet for opening coconuts - but it does a great job of cutting through my chicken bones when I make curry chicken :)

It will help, I use it to go thru bones such as ribs and pelvis. It's razor sharp.

No, the 2 blades slide off a bone that size. There is a notch near the pivot but I can never seem to use it. These shears do cut up the back of a chicken and around a thigh joint nicely.

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'm using it for metal cuts, I have had some plastic covering on the metal that it cut through. More of a melting of the plastic. It probably is not good for the blade.
