This is a Unique cheese cutter that you won't find anywhere else. Made of twisted, forged steel, this cutter is sure to last you for many years. The wire is stainless steel and is thick enough to hold up to a lot of use. We typically carry two styles of cheese cutter. One Cheese slicer frame is made of round stock, and the other is made of square stock and can be adorned with twists. We buy and use a lot of cheese blocks to on our homestead, so our designs are made to suit our needs and are thoroughly tested to ensure they hold up and work well.

Care and use:

We finish our kitchen utensils with a traditional, natural bee’s wax based finish. They’re what we call “hot waxed” where the piece is heated enough to smoke and “cook” the wax onto the surface of the metal. (much like seasoning cast iron pans and cookware) It gives a beautiful finish that highlights the look of the natural steel and lets the hand forging marks shine.

Storage:

We recommend storing these utensils in a dry place indoors. They Can rust, but we recommend hand washing them and thoroughly drying them after use. It's like caring for any cast iron cookware. If any surface rust appears, they can be cleaned with a wire brush or mild abrasive steel pad and re-sealed. In the case of the cheese cutters, the frames are made of mild steel which can rust, but the wire itself is Stainless Steel.

Re-Sealing:

Sealing our steel wares is a simple process. Once cleaned and free of rust, they can be wiped with some mineral oil or any other food safe oil desired. We typically lean towards anything such as mineral oil, linseed oil, vegetable oil etc.
