In the series Gourmet of the brand Microplane are a number of graters, including the Microplane Grater Extra Coarse. The graters of Microplane are the only graters which are laser cut. This distinguishes them from many other brands and has a positive effect on the longevity of the graters. The blade is made of 18/10 stainless steel and is extra wide. The blade has a width of 10 cm and is therefore not suitable for the Microplane grater holder. The grater also features an ergonomic handle with soft grip, which is made of plastic.
