Cheese Slicer?

DeeJoyce — Tue, 10 Aug 2021 23:25:41 GMT

Does anyone have a good cheese slicer? Maybe the kind with a roller and wire to cut. I like to buy the 8oz. block and have been slicing with a knife. Suggestions?

I have a cheese plane like the above. I also have a cheese board with cutting wire. You can use dental floss on soft cheese.

It's called pre-sliced packaged cheese for me!

I had a drawer full of these. Either the wire breaks or once you roll through the block of cheese it takes a hunk of the end off. I use an old fashioned knife.

Wow --that wire cheese slicer is a blast from the past--my mom had one and that darn thing never died---I don't use alot of cheese anymore but I have a special serrated knive that.... cuts the cheese----like butter--its just a knife but for some reason it does a perfect job with cheese---

I have a wonderful smalli-ish cheese board butcher block with a built-in wire slicer. Got it at a craft fair. Wonderful! Also given some a gifts.

I use a cheese plane labeled "Wusthof Gourmet' brand. I bought it for a couple bucks used at a restaurant liquidation sale years ago.

I bought one recently: It's a BOSKA HOLLAND Cheese Plane - Got it from Amazon, and I absolutely love it!

Used it to slice some Cheddar and Mozzarella (from blocks) and made a couple of delicious Grilled Cheese Sammiches 2 nights ago.

I'm remembering one from my childhood, too. It lasted a long time. Have had ones in recent years that barely lasted any time at all. The knife I'm using is also serrated. Thanks.
