Mighty Carver Review
Lance and Kim were kind enough to send us a Mighty Carver to try for ourselves, and I’ve got to say, it’s so fun! There is some childlike joy that comes from cutting up food with something that looks like a chainsaw.
I didn’t have a turkey or ham on hand, so I decided to test it out on my wife’s homemade bread. She makes sourdough bread, which is pretty tough so I thought it’d be a good way to test the durability of the Mighty Carver.
As you can see in the image above, it worked great! The Mighty Carver had no problems cutting through the bread and I can only imagine a turkey or ham would be just as easy.
The blades are also easy to pop in and out for when it’s time to clean up. Oh, and when you’re cutting, be sure to point it down at a 45-degree angle to get it started. If you hold it flat, it’ll be a bit more difficult!
