Guest guest Posted April 2, 2009 Report Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hello Beth, I think we have here a classic case of possessed mandolin, very usual in some Eastern Europe kitchens. Beware! ;-) Maybe some blessed water will fix the mandolin. Best, JL - Beth Renzetti Saturday, May 02, 2009 8:08 PM Re: Re: mandolin slicers There is likely a guard for it so you don't slice and dice your fingers... No, you don't understand.... I can't pick it up to move it to the counter to use. It's evil, I tell you. and yes, there is a guard but it's odd & awkward. Doesn't matter, I'm not going near it!

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 EVIL <bleeping> THINGS. All I have to do is LOOK at it & my finger is sliced wide open. I won't even pick it up to throw it away. Anyone who wants mine is welcome to it - it's in my basement. Free to good home but you need to come & get it. It's a GOOD one too - spent a pile o'money on it. Metal w/lots of scary attachments. @#$%*( thing.

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2009 Report Share Posted May 1, 2009 There is likely a guard for it so you don't slice and dice your fingers...I can't help but giggle as I've had numerous cuts from mine and they hurt like heck and bleed enough to make you think you might need a transfusion!! Try the guard thingy! It really does help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
