A hand-held bagel slicer is described for circumferentially slicing a bagel into two equal halves. The slicer comprises a generally U-shaped clip attached to la hand le. The clip comprises a generally semi-circular bight and two flexible legs. The legs c onverge slightly from the bight to their free ends to hold the bagel sideways, and the f ree ends are outwardly flared to facilitate insertion of the bagel for slicing. Midway betwee n the two legs is a 2 edged knife blade. The blade has a base secured to the bight and a t ip terminating in a point. The blade is about 50 to 75 % of the length of the legs. The free end of the handle is generally elliptical in cross section. The handle decreases in cross-sectional size and becomes generally rectangular in shape toward the flared end. The clip is joined to a core which has one or more small cross ribs extending laterally f rom a center rib to match with a similarly shaped recess in the handle to prevent rela tive rotation between the handle and the clip.
