Beautiful! I haven’t actually used this yet. It is so beautiful that I am just using it for display! The blade is very comfortable to hold. I’m sure I will love it once I actually use it. Click to Editorial Reviews

Recent gift to a budding goumet This was given, along with a cutting board with a recessed well, as a birthday gift to my budding gourmet son. He loved it and has been using it to chop herbs. Click to Editorial Reviews

Yes it IS dangerous. I agree: It’s dangerous. I really question the people who marked Melissa Smith’s review as not helpful. It might be the most helpful one here. I wish I had read it before I bought the item. I also got hurt using it. I use razor sharp knives all the time, but the very first time I used this one, I sliced open my finger all the way to the bone while trying to put it back in the case. Think about it. You hold the sheath in your palm with one hand and push the mezzaluna into it with the other hand. If it slips, you will slice your hand. I was lucky in that it was only my fingertip, but I did lose some of the feeling in that fingertip, which is not helpful when I play the piano. Please note that the problem is not that the blade is sharp; it’s the way you have to put it into the sheath. It fits tight and does not go in easily. I am a fanatic about sharp knives; I use them all the time. But with this mezzaluna, I sliced open my finger the very first time I… Great produc...

Great kitchen tool I bought this mezzaluna as a gift for my daughter. It’s as close in size and style as I could find to the mezzaluna I purchased for myself in Tuscany, Italy. This kitchen tool makes cutting herbs so much easier. Love it!! This here boomerang is busted, but it sure makes a fittin terbaccy chopper I seen this here boomerang on the Amazon store on the intertubes. Figgerin it fer a answer to the varmints done took up on my land, I ordered me one straight up. Shurnuff, a couple of days later, there it was waitin in my box at Shirl’s Stihl, Package Store and Post Office. I brung it home, fixin to solve both my varmint problem and my dinner problem, Ab-or-iginee style. Well, the durn thing sure looks purdy, gleaming like a well-loved still in the moonlight with all that nice stainless steel. Those two handles sure feel comfortable in the hands too. But the durn boomerang just don’t come back. First varmint I seen, I a-grabbed the boomerang and took aim. Well, that boomeran...

Amazing tool If you cook a lot, and large amounts, if you use onion and herbs with most cooking, then this tool is a must have for you. I have been looking for double bladed Mezzaluna just like the one I grew up with for years, and I did not hesitate to buy this one when I saw it on Amazon. The positive reviews and my Wusthof knives encouraged me to choose this particular one. It is perfect size. I enjoy using this Mezzaluna. Good Knife Well made, stays sharp – makes chopping spices like rosemary and thyme and most other fresh spices a snap. Kind of pricy but the quality is there… its wusthof cant go wrong! if its wusthof you know its good! i thought it would be a bit longer, but in any case, im happy! i love the handles and thw double blade really makes a difference!” Click to Editorial Reviews

indispensible tool I had to replace my old mezzaluna because it accidentally got thrown away. This little tool is great for chopping small quantities of parsley and other herbs, nuts, garlic.It is quick and very easy to use. Plus you don’t dirty the food processor for small jobs. I use this every day. Click to Editorial Reviews
