Microplane's PureCut Adjustable V-Blade Slicer is an ultra-sharp mandolin that's great for slicing fruit, vegetables, and other ingredients with precision. Focusing purely on variable-thickness slicing from 0 to 8mm, it effortlessly glides through ingredients—from soft tomatoes to dense root vegetables—with minimal friction. Featuring a razor-sharp stainless steel V-blade, it delivers perfectly consistent cuts every time, and an adjustment dial lets you seamlessly transition between paper-thin slices and thicker 8mm cuts. Built with an ergonomic soft-touch handle suited for both right- and left-handed users, non-slip rubber feet, and an included safety finger guard, it brings professional-level cutting performance directly to your home kitchen. A great tool for achieving uniform slices without crushing or bruising ingredients, it makes it easy to cut everything from apples, oranges, peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes and potatoes to onions.

About The Brand
Microplane
The first Microplane was conceived in 1990 by brothers Richard and Jeff Grace in Arkansas, USA, and was originally intended for use in woodworking. However, as the legend goes, a home cook once decided on a whim to try it out on an orange, and was astonished by the perfectly-shaped shards of zest it could produce. This ultimately led to the development of the Microplane brand as we know it today—a household name and the industry standard for graters, shavers, and zesters.
What sets Microplane products apart from others is their exceptional, long-lasting sharpness: the blades are made by means of a patented photochemical etching process that shapes them far more precisely than traditional mechanical means. The razor-sharp blades finely slice ingredients, rather than crushing or tearing them like the duller metal-stamped blades on standard graters; this makes grating or zesting much less laborious, and improves the taste, texture, and appearance of whatever you’re grating.
