Review on 🔪 Slice & Dice Effortlessly with Borner V6 Stainless Steel Mandoline V-Slicer by Kristi Ratz

I have been using the white plastic model of this mandolin for over 20 years and it has started to discolour with use. Stainless steel is much easier to clean, and the improved blade attachment method has made cutting faster and more precise. The blades are also sharper than I've ever remembered from a plastic model, making slicing effortless. As for protection, I've skipped it - it's very bulky and requires such pre-cutting of veggies that it becomes pointless to use a mandolin - so I always use Kevlar kitchen gloves or something similar. This knife is so sharp that you risk serious injury without protective gloves. The plastic model had notches on the sides near the bottom to make cutting the bowl easier, but this one doesn't. Although the SS is easy to clean, it has a plastic construction that makes the blade area difficult to clean. I've been using it almost every day since I've had it as it makes processing veggies so much easier.
