Cutter for slicing foodstuffs esp. cheese

摘要

The cutter has a slicing wire (6) attached at one end to a finger grip (8) and to T-shaped shaft (1) with winged handle (4) at the other. The shaft has a spirally shaped stem (2) around the top of which the end of the wire is fastened and can turn freely. The shaft is inserted into the foodstuff so that the end of the wire penetrates the end face to a depth corresponding to the thickness of the slice required. Gripping the handle with one hand the wire is pulled tight and rotated via the finger grip 360 deg. about the stem with the other hand. The movement of the wire through the foodstuff slices it.
