You call that a knife?

This is an ultrasonic knife. Seattle Ultrasonics’ C-200 uses piezoelectric ceramic crystals to vibrate over 30,000 times a second, helping it cut as if it’s sharper than it really is. I was skeptical, but I sliced through a tomato with almost no resistance at all — it felt like the knife was falling through.

The C-200 still needs sharpening, but less frequently than other knives — once every couple of years.
