I bought mine from blindtreasures.com and it's a horizontal french fry cutter. Depending on the size of the potato you may need to slice it in half in order for it to fit between the plastic pusher and the metal grid. What I have has blades and not wires. It has a handle on top and a couple rubber pads on the bottom for gripping a surface. When the handle is vertical the cutter is open. When you put a potato in the cutter and want to use it, you apply weight on the handle and pull it down. This french fry cutter has some plastic parts, my mother had one that I got earlier and some apartment re-organizers threw out that was all metal.
