Tiny vee shaped cuts through an apple skin to form the wings of an apple bird or peeling a cherry tomato to separate the skin from the flesh to make a flower. That knife is wonderful for what it does, and of course I justify it because I use it to make my living. That said, I would not own a larger one because if I ever dropped it... Shatter, kiss it good bye. My next slicing type knife will be a single bevel edged slicer and yes when you have 60 sushi rolls to cut up in a hurry (been there) the slicer is the way to go. Brian;

Do you think it is worth it too have a product that just specializes in slicing? How well would you say they cut compared to a normal kitchen knife?
