MUST HAVE MONDAY: de Buyer Kobra Axis Handheld Slicer

Today's "Must Have" is the de Buyer handheld mandolin. This compact design slicer packs a lot of cutting power in a small package. Unlike many mandolins, this fits neatly in a drawer or small space. (Our kitchen cupboards are overflowing with gadgets so small and compact win!)

We have used this dishwasher-safe mighty slicer for years and it still is razor sharp. As with all mandolins, we recommend you use the included guard EVERY TIME. 

This slicer fits over a bowl or directly over a frying pan, salad bowl or other pot and with a twist of the handle, delivers precise, restaurant worthy slices of a myriad of items. 

You can purchase the mandolin from the de Buyer website for $39.95, which is currently on sale. (Regular price $79.95). You can also pick one up at the Williams Sonoma store or site nearest you for $59.95. Once you get one, you will wonder what you ever did without it.
