Frequently Asked Questions
What safety measures should be taken?
- Do not exert too much force, especially if the knife is sharp, making the cut slow.
- Place the ham on a ham holder to hold it. Make sure that the ham is fixed.
- For right-handed people, the left hand should be placed higher than the right hand, which is the one doing the cutting. For left-handed people, the left hand should be used and the right hand should be the one holding the ham at a higher height. An anti-cut protector could also be used.
