Swissmar Borner Mandoline V Slicer Plus

Engineered Precision: The Original German V-Slicer Plus


In a professional kitchen, consistency is the difference between a successful service and a bottleneck. The Borner V-Slicer Plus (V-1001) is the industry standard for chefs who demand rapid, uniform vegetable processing without the mechanical complexity of a French mandoline. This German-made powerhouse utilizes a patented V-shaped blade design that engages produce at two distinct points simultaneously. This geometry significantly reduces the force required for each stroke, preventing the 'crushing' effect often seen with straight-edge slicers on softer produce like tomatoes or peppers.


Crafted from heavy-duty, BPA-free ABS plastic, the V-1001 is built to withstand the rigors of commercial environments. Whether you are processing 40 pounds of potatoes for gratin or fine-tuning a julienne garnish for a delicate crudo, the surgical-grade stainless steel blades maintain their edge through thousands of cycles. The system is designed for a seamless workflow—swapping between the slicing plane and the julienne inserts takes seconds, allowing you to move from thick rounds to 7mm sticks without stopping to adjust knobs or screws. This tool excels in high-volume mise-en-place where speed and safety are non-negotiable.
