This meat tenderizer is awesome. The blades pierce through meat with ease which allows better marination. I also like the handle because it is easy to grab on to. Great product!

This really does the trick in tenderizing a tough piece of meat or even just to prepare a chicken breast for a marinade. It seems to be pretty durable and the blades have stayed sharp after over a year of use. It can sometimes be difficult to clean if the staff leave it a bit after use, but other than that, highly recommended.

Let's face it, no all meat is created equal. I guess that's duh, but this meat tenderizers helps make all our steaks cut with a fork tender.

Great meat tenderizer! We use these to needle our steak tips before we cut them into pieces. It needles them just right and allows the marination to perfectly seep inside of the meat. Great comfortable handle and great price on Webstaurant store.

This does a great job of tenderizing meat. It is rather unstable due to the narrow width. I would like it a bit wider. It is also difficult to clean. I don't want to dull it by putting it in the dishwasher and can only soak and spray to get in between the many blades

This is an exceptional product. The blades are very sharp and pierce the meat easily. The handle is oversized for an excellent grip and the product appears to be well made and durable. There is a very nice plastic protective cover for the blades. I would highly recommend this product. It will be my primary utensil for tenderizing meat.

The best part of this was it works. The plunger is sprung well enough that it returns even when doing a tough cut. The knives/blades penetrate with some control and this allows you to press flavorings into the meat. I'm gratified by the outcomes. Seems sturdy and has not failed. Relatively easy to clean. I am a casual cook.

This 48 blade meat tenderizer does a great job of tenderizing cuts of meat without pulverizing them. I’m a professional meat cutter with 10 years experience. I bought this product for home use and I was able to make as tender a steak with this product as I would with a motorized commercial tenderizer. I spent less time and made a more attractive finished product that was as tender as steaks from my retail store. This is a great product.

The 48 Blade Meat Tenderizer. It is great for making the toughest cut of meat juicy, and flavorful. It tenderizes meat, poultry, or fish before marinating. Dishwasher safe. Great price.

This is an outstanding meat tenderizer! I use it primarily to make my own cube steak for salisbury steak meals from inexpensive, on-sale beef cuts. It tenderizes quicker and quieter than the conventional pounder version. And the meat is tender enough to cut with a fork - no knife needed!

Much larger than expected, takes up more drawer space than it's really worth. The handle is unnecessarily large. Excellent tool, blades are sharp. Good construction, though springs might have excessive resistance for some cuts of meat. Lots of plastic. Plastic cover for blade section.

I always use this to pierce my meat before marinading. I end up using this on chicken a lot an hour before I’m going to cook it. The piercing allows the flavors to get deep inside and very quickly.

Arrived yesterday...just in time for my weekend event. I used it to inject holes in my pork butts before their 36 hour bath in Marinade. It worked great even with the meat being slightly frozen still. Can't wait to serve my pulled pork sandwiches with a deeper marinade.

I always like to tenderize steaks before marinating them. I am convinced that tenderizing steaks improves the flavor and keeps the steak tender. A 48 blade tenderizer makes the process easy and fast. This tenderizer is well made and is safe in the dishwasher. After repeated usage the blades are still sharp and none have bent.

Wow!!! I purchased a steak for dinner and it says to Tenderize the meat. Just new to a kitchen I am so happy I purchased this Meat Tenderizer for my husbands kitchen.This was so easy to use and no fingers get in the way. No large type hammer tenderizer needed when you have one of these in your kitchen drawer. I was totally surprised my steak was a hit with our company and husband. The price is great and clean up really easy.

This is a Big Daddy tool. Did not work too well for me on a small piece of meat like a chicken breast but would be awesome on a roast or any larger piece of meat. Definitely a professional's tool.
