1. A mandoline-type food slicer for slicing food advanced in a cutting direction, the food slicer comprising:
a frame for supporting a landing and a runway, which is movable relative to the landing; a cutting blade secured on an upstream end of the landing, a downstream end of the runway being spaced from an edge of the cutting blade to define an opening for the passage of sliced food; a separate cutting knife moveably connected to the frame; and an adjustment mechanism connected to the frame and configured to adjust an offset between the cutting blade and the runway, the adjustment mechanism including spaced apart first and second guide tracks provided on respective first and second movable side members, wherein the first and second guide tracks are configured such that a first movement of the adjustment mechanism from a locked position of the food slicer lowers the downstream end of the runway relative to the cutting blade to adjust a cutting thickness and a second movement of the adjustment mechanism from the locked position lowers the downstream end of the runway and raises the cutting knife to a working position. |
