If you've ever used a Microplane grater, you know how sharp all those little Microplane blades are. Now those surgical-stainless-steel blades are put to use in a cheese mill that lets you grate hard cheeses directly onto food, just like you would add fresh-ground pepper using a pepper mill. This mill makes sharing around the table quick, easy and safe. Just remove the top of the mill to load small chunks of cheese, then twist; the dozesn of photo-etched blades make quick work of even the hardest cheeses. It's easy to create your own cheese mix, with pieces of Parmesan, Asiago and Romano. You get two discs, one fine and one coarse, that store in the mill for safety. The Micorplane cheese mill is 3" in diameter and stands 6.75" tall. Removable top to easily load small chunks of cheese. Ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your hand. Fine and Coarse Blades included. Bottom Lid included for easy extra blade storage. Available in white body with black top/plunger. Tool Dimensions: 3 in x 3 in x 6.75 in tall. Materials: Blades made of surgical grade stainless steel. Plastic body. Weight: 14 oz.
