## Description

HIC's Straight Edge Food Chopper quickly minces and chops ingredients. Used by many generations, this vintage kitchenware is a great addition to cutlery and chef knives to save time during food preparation. No batteries or electric required. Great for cutting fruits and vegetables, small salads, tuna, hard boiled eggs, onions or making quick healthy snacks. For best results, simply use an up-and-down motion until desired texture is achieved. Sturdy and durable hand chopper. Hand wash in warm soapy water. Glass base is dishwasher safe.

Review: Not worth the money - I had previously given this item 4 stars, May 2025, I have now been forced to amend this to 1 star as the metal chopping blades and gris are simply not man enough for the job! Since purchasing it I have only used it to chop peanuts (for the birds), and it has been used about once envery 6 weeks. The cutters are not bent and the base plate through wich the cutters go is twisted and is no longer performing the role for which it was advertised i,e, Nut chopper.
Review: Not for almonds - This item is useless unless you use on vert soft nuts, the splines bend totaly out of shape when they see an almond.
