Overview
Carving turkeys, roasts, and bread loaves is the job of the Proctor Silex 74312, an electric knife with a 120-watt motor and reciprocating, serrated stainless steel blades.
Proctor Silex positions it for both kitchen carving and craft use, cutting foam and similar materials with the same reciprocating blade action. A 5-foot cord gives extra reach when carving a large roast or turkey at the table, and the trigger control keeps operation to a single squeeze.
- 120-watt reciprocating motor
- Serrated stainless steel blades
- 5-foot cord length
- Lightweight, contoured ergonomic grip
Who it's for
Useful for anyone who regularly carves whole turkeys, hams, or roasts, or who bakes bread loaves and wants clean slices. Also handy for crafters cutting foam, though it's a kitchen appliance first.
Pros and cons
- 120-watt motor for consistent slicing
- 5-foot cord reaches across a table
- Works in either hand
- Corded, so no cordless option
- Serrated blades are not user-sharpenable
Performance notes
Two reciprocating, serrated stainless steel blades handle the cutting motion, powered by a 120-watt motor and a simple trigger control rather than multiple buttons. The contoured grip is shaped to sit comfortably in either hand, and the 5-foot cord extends well beyond a typical countertop for carving at a dining table.
