Cheese slicer for gourmets and connoisseurs
Do you love sliced cheese? Then you've come to the right place. With our elegant wooden cheese slicer, you can slice your favorite hard cheese into wafer-thin slices in no time. Whether it's mountain, alpine, or sliced cheese, Parmesan or Sbrinz, the proven and interchangeable quality blade from Victorinox cuts through thick and thin, slicing your cheese to your preferred thickness.
Swiss craftsmanship
Our cheese slicers are all made in Swiss workshops for people with disabilities. Our partner workshops are located in Bern and Thun. These unique pieces are created with great care, patience, and craftsmanship through a collaborative process of planning and development.
Quality
Our products are crafted from solid wood. The wood comes from ash, walnut, cherry, plum, and olive trees. Each plane is unique, with distinctive grains, beautifully intertwined knots, and subtle color variations. The razor-sharp blade comes from the Swiss knife maker Victorinox. We consider only the highest quality. This pays off for you many times over with its longevity.
Where does the wood come from?
Whenever possible, we use wood from Switzerland. We attach great importance to contemporary design and a stylish selection of wood species. That's why we're not afraid to source wood from abroad. Here's where our wood comes from:
Ash: Switzerland
Walnut: Mainly from the EU, Hungary. Sourced from: darker black walnut. Swiss walnut is very rare and less suitable for processing.
Cherry tree: Switzerland
Plum tree: Switzerland
Olive tree: mainly from Italy and the EU
How does the cheese slicer work?
Grating cheese is easy
Our cheese slicers are incredibly easy to use. Cutting, adjusting the thickness, cleaning, and changing the blade are child's play.

Store the wooden products at a consistent room temperature if possible. After use, wipe them with a damp cloth and dry them thoroughly.

Where are the planes and cutting boards made?
The development and production of our sausage slicers, salami slicers, cheese slicers and cutting boards takes place exclusively in Swiss workshops for people with disabilities. These workshops are located in Bern, Thun and Interlaken. Not far from us in Frutigen.
In the workshops, the wooden products are made with patience, dedication, careful craftsmanship and great pride. Each plane and board is unique with its own wood pattern.
Which plane is right for me?
There is no such thing as THE right planer. It all depends on your requirements. We will try to give you a brief explanation here.
SAUSAGE SLICER For smaller pieces of meat, cheese and more. You can cut sausages up to 4.5cm in diameter.
SALAMI SLICER For larger pieces of meat, cheese and anything that can be cut up to 9cm in diameter. If in doubt, use the salami slicer. You can also use it to cut smaller sausages without any problem.
SAUSAGE HARVESTER Gastro At 4.5cm, it has exactly the same cutting surface as the sausage slicer. The only difference is that the sausage slicer is attached to the serving plate.
SALAMI HOBEL Gastro At 9cm, it has exactly the same cutting surface as the salami slicer. The only difference is that the salami slicer is attached to the serving plate.
CHEESE SLICER small Sliced cheese and hard cheese up to 10cm wide.
CHEESE SLICER large Sliced cheese and hard cheese up to 12cm wide. Only with the large cheese slicer can you create the sausage and cheese slicer COMBI together with the sausage slicer.
Where does the wood come from?
Whenever possible and sensible, we use wood from Switzerland. We attach great importance to contemporary design and a stylish selection of wood types. That's why we are not afraid to source wood from abroad.
This is where our wood comes from:
Ash tree Switzerland
Walnut mainly from the EU, mostly Hungary. The reason: darker black walnut tree. Swiss walnut is very rare and less suitable for processing.
Cherry tree Switzerland

Can I have an engraving done?
How do I adjust the thickness of the cheese slicer?
You only need to adjust the blade once. There are two screws on the underside of the slicer that you can loosen by hand. Push the blade forward until the slices are exactly as thick as you want. Then straighten the blade and tighten the screws. This will lock the blade and your slices will always be the same thickness.
It's best to leave the blade adjusted like this afterwards. That way you don't have to do it again every time. Just be careful not to cut yourself when cleaning and putting it away.
Can I use the cheese slicer to slice vegetables?
Clearly: yes and no 😊
Basically, the cheese slicer is designed to cut hard cheese into wafer-thin slices. We don't recommend using the cheese slicer for cutting vegetables. This is mainly because vegetables are softer and can break or get stuck, for example . This means that you can cut yourself with an unexpected movement. And of course we don't want that. But it's by no means the case that the cheese slicer can't handle vegetables. The Victorinox blade is very sharp and slices vegetables without any problems. If you're brave, you can give it a try. Just be careful with your fingers.
Which cheese can I slice with the cheese slicer?
How do I clean the planes?
You can wipe the plane with a damp cloth. This is enough for cleaning. From time to time, a more thorough cleaning is recommended. To do this, you can unscrew the blade and clean everything thoroughly with a damp cloth.
For meat slicers, we recommend that you remove the knife carriage before cleaning. This is for your safety so that you don't cut yourself.
Please do not clean in the dishwasher, under running water or with strong detergent.
