Apparatus and method for uniform even slicing

摘要

A cutting implement with a blade, a handle, and a tip, used in conjunction with a planar support surface upon which food or a similar substance rests. The handle and tip cooperate to maintain the blade parallel to, and a pre-determined distance from, the support surface during a reciprocal horizontally-translating slicing motion, thus ensuring that slices are produced with two parallel planar surfaces which are uniformly of a pre-determined thickness.
