The Mandoline Wince, it excels at taking just enough of to be painful.
I use mine for rösti
My fiancé gives me a dirty look every time I pull it out of the cabinet.
Equally adept at slicing your hands in terrible ways is fucking plastic clamshell containers where you need to rip off a strip to delicately pry open the two razor sharp edges that will, despite your best efforts, find a way to cut you.
Fuck anyone who puts anything in this clear plastic packaging.
We've got one of these: https://www.amazon.com/DASH-Mandolin...NsaWNrPXRydWU=
Works well and completely safe.
Oh sure, now you tell me!Quote:

Skidog getting unbanned and immediately cunting up thread after thread. That shit's annoying. :mad:
I use a mandoine the most for slicing onions--one of the best ways to cut yourself with a knife. With a good guard I think the mandoline is safer for slicing round stuff.
Fucking mandolins.

Hope dad's ok.Quote:

Told will have to figure out how to get to Boston on my own from Worcester. End up renting a car a jfk at 5 in the morning and driving to Boston. Bonus points for stopping at a mcds in nyc to get coffee and some crazy bum telling my wife he was going to kill her and the kids. Annoying day.
Same. Thank man.Quote:
