Mandolin slicers can be scary. My fiancee wanted to be first to try ours and started slicing a potato. 2 strokes in and she looks up at me to say how easy it was. Stroke #3, she lost the tip of her finger. Lots of blood and 2 months to heal. I am designated mandolin slicer now.

Always use that veg-holder thing!

Agreed! She actually tried it again last week for the first time in a year. Used an Ove Glove, the safety guard, and the vegetable holder. Safety first but watching her was pretty funny.

I cringe when I see people on TV bare-handed.

I have one of those somewhere in the kitchen. I don't know when I got it or why. DOn't think I have ever used it.

Onion rings baby. I like mine paper thin, not those big clunky things.
