If you are lucky enough to have an expensive truffle to slice, you need this specialty cutlery item. This 6-1/2" long Italian stainless steel tagliatartufi sparingly shaves off curls of the delectable and rare fungus known as the truffle. Its 2-1/4" wide removable and adjustable blade allows for variety in the thickness of the slice. Other uses: shaving chocolate, ginger, small vegetables and fruits. Dishwasher safe, but hand-washing is recommended. CAUTION: Use carefully, as there is no finger guard. Gift boxed.
