Kyocera Wide Adjustable Ceramic Mandoline Slicer

A large onion or a wedge of cabbage can overhang the blade of a standard handheld slicer. The Kyocera Wide Adjustable Mandoline has a 4-inch angled ceramic blade sized for broad produce, and Kyocera singles out lettuce and cabbage as the jobs it handles well. Whole onion rings and wide eggplant slices fit across it as well.

A dial sets the thickness, and there is nothing else to set up. The angled edge slices cleanly through soft tomatoes and dense potatoes alike, and the ceramic will not rust or leave a metallic taste. A hand guard holds the food and protects fingertips.

Customers ask us whether Kyocera slicers can go in the dishwasher. For this model, Kyocera says yes. Rinse it soon after slicing starchy vegetables so the residue does not harden on the deck.

Wide or Standard Width?

The Adjustable Ceramic Mandoline has the same four thicknesses on a narrower 3.5-inch blade, which is easier to store and plenty for carrots and cucumbers. Choose this wide model when cabbage or lettuce is on the list.
