slicer gimmick ?

[Charon]

I have a friend who is asking me where he can get a blade like the one in the video
My bigger question is this ok tool or a gimmick?

To me this looks like push cut with the potential for a lot of wedging

This just looks like an elaborate mandoline...

 

[Charon]

True. But can I safely cut a salami on a mandoline?

Gimmick with extremely limited use.

Bet that thing is fun to clean.

So much play. The guard doesn't seem very effective if you can still easily stick your fingers through it.

i'm waiting for the video where a finger does get through
