- Seattle Ultrasonics unveiled the C-200, the world's first ultrasonic chef's knife for home cooks, priced at $399.
- The knife vibrates over 40,000 times per second, reducing cutting force by 50% and preventing food from sticking to the blade.
- Developed by Scott Heimendinger over six years, the C-200 combines industrial ultrasonic technology with traditional knife design.
- The 8-inch blade is made of Japanese AUS-10 san mai stainless steel, durable and corrosion-resistant, and can be resharpened traditionally.
- The cordless design includes a removable USB-C charged battery pack, with an optional $149 hardwood wireless charging tile.
- The knife may benefit people with arthritis or dexterity issues by reducing the force needed for cutting.
- Preorders are open with delivery expected in Jan. 2026, priced at $399 in the US and $529 in Canada, with a limited-time bundle at $499.
