Adjustable Bread Knife Yields Uniform Slices

Adjustable Bread Knife Yields Uniform Slices FARM HOME Food 24-1-32 Former fiddle-maker Carl Haggar of East Glacier Park, Montana, has used his artistic abilities to create a unique line of gourmet kitchen utensils with a "musical flavor." Haggar's company, Mountain Woods Inc., produces a variety of kitchen products, many of which have a musical theme. His new "Adjustable Fiddle Bow Knife," eliminates an age-old problem û cutting even slices from homemade loaves of bread. It cuts even-sized slices in a variety of widths. The knife is made with domestic hardwood (either oak or cherry), brass and stainless steel and uses an easily adjustable thumbscrew to allow users to pre-select the width of the slice, up to one full inch. It has a serrated, stainless steel, double-ground blade that never needs sharpening. "It also works really well on tomatoes or any other vegetable or fruit," says Kathy Fekete, marketing rep. for Mountain Woods. "You can gauge a nice, thin slice." The Adjustable Fiddle Bow Knife sells for $33.95 and the Original Fiddle Bow Knife (not adjustable) is priced at $19.95 plus S&H. Other special knives are available. Dealer inquiries are welcome.
