Hi Avital,


  Thanks for your reply. Just dragged it out of the box (again)...Looks like 
it's a Mafler (made in France, and all the paperwork stuff is in French). I 
wish I had botten a plastic one -- people have told me they are easier to use, 
and a great asset, after I bought this one....It's beautiful to look at, when I 
take it out of the box, BUT....I guess the blades scare me too much - they are 
indeed razor sharp. I'm afraid to lose a finger if I play with it too much. Or 
at least, I need to be more sure of what I'm trying to do, and how to do it, to 
minimize that risk! 

  

  Regards,

  Ricky

    What brand do you have? I have a Borner (plastic with metal blades --  
definitely one of the cheap models) and I love it. They all work  pretty much 
the same way. You must be zealous about using the hand  guard because any 
mandoline can give you really nasty cuts. I use mine  mainly for slicing or 
julienning vegetables.    Avital    On Jan 29, 2008 5:49 AM,  [EMAIL

that might help me actually make   use of my investment?  >  >  >  > All
