Title: Love it/hate it!
Product review: Like all Black and Decker products, this one is sturdy and a great buy for the price. However,the safety lock on this model is almost a design defect. It's very difficult to hold the lock down while operating the knife, causing constant stops. I got the knife for my mother, who has arthritis in her hands. She couldn't use it with the safety lock, so I cut it off. Yes, I know, doing that voids all warranties. However, it was useless as it was. I couldn't recommend this model to anyone. Our last Black and Decker knife lasted for some 20 years, and was very easy to use.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
