Cheese slicer WMF 3201000145 Stainless steel blade and handle

WMF 3201000145 Stainless steel blade and handle is a cheese slicer designed for even, hygienic slicing of semi-hard and hard cheeses. The tool is made from Cromargan® stainless steel with a uniform cutting edge and two slicing wires that produce consistent slices. It features a solid stainless steel handle with an integrated eyelet for hanging and a dishwasher-safe construction for easy cleaning and corrosion resistance suitable for both home and professional kitchens.

Advantages

The WMF stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance and simple maintenance while the two cutting wires deliver uniform slices across a range of cheeses. A watertight, dishwasher-safe design supports hygienic cleaning routines and the cemented front part and eyelet ensure durable, long-term use. The product pairs a polished and matte finish for a practical yet understated aesthetic that fits many kitchen styles.

Suitable for

• Slicing semi-hard cheeses such as Gouda and Emmental
• Portioning hard cheeses like Pecorino and Parmigiano
• Use in domestic kitchens for everyday food preparation
• Use in professional or catering environments that require easy-to-clean tools

When it may not be suitable

This cheese slicer is intended for semi-hard and hard cheeses; it may not perform well on very soft, spreadable cheeses or on extremely hard, aged cheeses that require tapping or grating. It is a hand-operated slicer and therefore not designed for high-volume automated production.

Key specifications

• Material: Cromargan® stainless steel (18/10) construction
• Blade type: Stainless steel cutting edge with two slicing wires
• Handle: Stainless steel with integrated eyelet for hanging
• Finish: Combination of polished and matte surfaces
• Cleaning: Dishwasher-safe, watertight design for hygiene
• Intended food type: Semi-hard and hard cheeses

How to use

Place the cheese on a stable cutting board and hold the slicer by the handle with a comfortable grip. Position the slicing wires at the desired thickness and draw the slicer smoothly across the cheese from one side to the other to create even slices. For very hard cheeses, apply steady pressure and use gradual passes rather than forcing a single deep cut. After use, rinse or place in the dishwasher following the appliance manufacturer’s instructions.

What to consider before purchase

• Intended cheese types: optimized for semi-hard and hard cheeses
• Cleaning method: dishwasher-safe but check dishwasher recommendations for long-term finish care
• Storage: integrated eyelet for hanging vs. drawer storage preferences
• Usage frequency: manual tool suitable for household and moderate professional use, not for industrial-scale slicing

Usage recommendations

For best results, use on room-temperature cheeses for smoother slicing, clean after each use to maintain hygiene and corrosion resistance, and store hanging by the eyelet to protect the cutting wires and preserve the tool’s shape.
