Without sounding to cliche, the Japanese have always been highly innovative and while you may better associate Japan with big names such as Sony, Shiseido, Nintendo, and Canon, there are plenty more Japanese brands helping us out on a smaller scale around the home. Perfect example? Benriner slicers! 

Founded in 1940, the first of these slicers were made from wood and popular among hotels and restaurants. Eventually, the general public fell in love with these clever contraptions, made with Japanese stainless steel blades (known to keep their edge for longer), and now just about anyone can benefit from a Benriner invention. 

Slicing vegetables just got a lot easier, thanks to Benriner's Japanese Mandoline Slicer. Made from durable plastic, this handy slicing tool will soon become a staple in your kitchen. The slicer creates large, uniform slices while the convenient handle at the end of the mandoline slicer gives you something to hold tight to. 

The slicer also features three interchangeable blades, so you can make fine, medium, and coarse slices of carrots, zucchini, and more. Cucumber slices for Thai beef salad, potato slices for your potato bake, and even sweet potato for your fries, you can do it all with Benriner!
