This 6" half-moon (mezzaluna) double chopper is great for smaller jobs. Its two heavy duty stainless steel blades have beveled edges. The sturdy black handle is comfortable to grip and feels like a car's steering wheel. Rock back and forth on your cutting board and a pile of herbs is quickly minced. Some prefer to chop in a wooden bowl with an up-and-down motion. The mezzaluna includes a plastic cover for blade protection and storage. gift boxed.
