Just used mine for the first time. Sliced up a cantaloup - easy as pie. My wife was slicing tomatoes and having a devil of a time with one of our old cheap chefs knives. Handed her the fusion and she said, "It won't help. Tomatoes are just like this." The look on her face when this knife sliced straight through that tomato with no pressure was priceless. I bought this on a whim and now recommend it thoroughly. @Deaomega1214 this is one hell of a knife!!
