The electric meat slicers have guards, so you are no where close to the blade, but like any thing else, you need to keep your wits about you at all times when using an apparatus like that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sisi Ben-Simon" <[email protected]>

You're probably right. I will try to find an electric knife here and tell you all about my experience with it.

I think one would be much less likely to cut a finger with an electric knife than with a traditional knife, or something like an electric slicer. You have to push a switch to turn the knife on, so you are aware when you are turning it on and off, which would, I think, make it much less likely for one to turn it on when a finger was in the way.

Hi,

what happened to Penny is scary indeed, but it can happen to anyone, sighted or blind, in a moment of carelessness. What worries me more is that we might cut our fingers with those knives. Is there any protection against that? I've never seen an electric knife so I have no idea. If someone could please describe what it looks like that would be nice.

Thanks
Sisi
