With the OXO Hand-Mandoline, making a salad, an apple pie or a potato gratin will become not only easy, but also a lot of fun. You can easily adjust the cutting thickness to your liking with the knob on the side. You can set the cutting thickness to 1 mm, 2.5 mm and 4 mm. You can safely cut the food by securing it in the holder. Also, the OXO Hand-Mandoline has non-slip feet. So you can, for example, let it rest on a bowl so that the ingredients fall evenly into the bowl end up.
