An Effective Slicer: Serrated Blade Mars Some Produce
Summary
At nearly $60 the de Buyer is the most expensive hand-held slicer we have tested to date. The model is definitely well-constructed and has a sharp, serrated blade capable of slicing through all kinds of fruits and vegetables with ease. However, the serrated teeth leave telltale grooves on softer vegetables such as potatoes, cucumbers, and zucchini, marring the finished appearance of slices. Considering that there is cheaper and equally effective competition in this product category, this was deemed a fatal flaw for the de Buyer.
