Those will never be BIFL because there's no practical way to sharpen the blades.

They'll cut good for a little while, then they'll just mush the food through wire mesh essentially.

Get a good knife and learn how to use it properly. You'll cut just as fast as one of those and it's more versatile.

The majority of kitchen tools that seem like life hacks fall into this category.

Very rarely is there a tool that does the job better than a knife or your hands.

Except for a garlic press. Garlic presses are the shit and I never want to chop garlic again.
