Jamonprive - Ham Knife with Accident Guard for Lefties & Righties (30 cm) - Ideal for cutting Serrano and Ibérico Hams

This is a first class knife for slicing Jamon Serrano. Having received a gift of a ham for Christmas I was at a loss as to how to slice it properly. I did a little research and eventually discovered this knife. I had been told that the ham should be sliced very thinly and in short, 2 to 3 inch, pieces but that a very sharp, flexible blade was needed and great care was necessary in order to a) cut the pieces thinly enough and b) not slip with the blade and cut oneself. This knife delivers all of the requirements effortlessly! The blade is very flexible and razor sharp but is protected in a unique plastic/nylon guide that also acts as a guide and depth stop so that it is easy to slice very thin pieces. I heartily recommend this knife for anyone interested in achieving a professional job effortlessly.

I bought this knife a little while ago and have just bought a Serrano ham. I wasn't convinced how effective it would be, but it really is a rather clever bit of kit. The knife seems sharp enough (I haven't needed to sharpen it yet) and it works effectively on producing nice thin slices of ham. The protector, apart from the obvious safety advantage, seems to provide a good guide and makes the task easier. With a 'free-hand' knife my efforts on my last ham did improve over time, but I was not always getting the consistency I seem to be getting from this knife. I thought the price seemed a little high for a plastic handled knife, but it certainly does the job well, and there's no 'waste' because of poor cutting style. A very clever product that I enjoy using.

When this first arrived I thought it was useless and was going to return it. Once sharpened though...it is an excellent knife for the money, its a pity because it should be sharp when it arrives but I would still buy this knife again because its good quality. The knife guard....don't even bother trying to slice with it on, its a gimmick, however, its a very good addition to have to protect the knife when not in use.

After receiving a Serrano Ham Leg with a stand as a Christmas present, I realised I needed a quality knife to produce very thin slices - and I could not have chosen a better one than this model from Jamonprive! Razor sharp and flexible, the knife cuts through the dried ham very effectively. The anti accident guard is a very clever idea - and it pushes the slices away from the knife blade. The knife is also excellent for slicing english style ham as well - the extra long blade makes cutting thin slices a dream! Best purchase ever!!!

I bought this knife to cut a Serrano ham as we had nothing suitable.It has done a perfect job of making it much easier to just cut thin slices as it should be.It is well made in Spain and is really worth getting. Normal domestic knives are not the thing as we found. It comes with a guard and is very easy to use. It is top quality. I would recommend one to anyone who is buying or has one of the Serrano hams.

Very sharp but blade so thin. It allows too much twist

What a FANTASTIC knife this is don't know if you can get a shaper knife

Bought this to cut up a half leg of Serrano ham I bought for Christmas. It’s impossible without a sharp enough knife so I thought I’d make the purchase. The knife is super sharp and has retained its edge well so far after a solid month. The plastic guard is perfect at helping create super thin slices. It’s light so doesn’t feel super premium and can bend quite easily. Would’ve preferred it to be sturdier but as long as you have a nice flat surface, it does the job very well. Can use this to cut all kinds of meat if you take the guard off as it’s so sharp.
