Produces thin to medium shavings – perfect for salads, sandwiches or crackers.
Creates small, delicate shavings that are perfect for melting on top of pasta or salad.
Also known as a roller plane, this tool is best for cutting squares off sticks of cheese. Ideal for cheese trays and platters.
For use at the table. Look for a thin or open blade. This reduces friction and prevents the cheese from sticking to the knife.
