Miracle Multipurpose Zigzag Slicer

018 - Kom-Kom miracle multipurpose zigzag slicer.

The Kom-Kom Miracle multipurpose zigzag slicer is a unique kitchen gadget from Thailand that has several useful features:

• A zig-zig style cutting blade, similar to the one on the 218 Kiwi Brand Pro Slicer, which can be rotated to different positions for your convenience. This blade can be used for shredding vegetables into long thin julienne strips, in a similar way to a mandolin slicer.
• The handle corer can be used to remove the cores from soft fruits like cucumbers.
• A plastic scoring blade that can help with peeling citrus fruit.
• A special V shaped plastic blade that can carve zigzag patterns in soft fruit like tomatoes or cucumbers when preparing decorative salads.

The Kom-Kom Miracle multipurpose zigzag slicer is especially useful for preparing green papaya salad or vegetables for spring rolls.  It can be used to shred potatoes for home-made rosti or carrots and cabbage for coleslaw. We like to use ours for making a delicious celeriac remoulade.

Keep the blade away from strong acids or alkalis such as fish sauce or vinegar.
Do not use wire wool to clean as it may damage the blade. Wash with a soft sponge and dry immediately.

Avoid putting wooden handled knives in a dishwasher as the high temperature and extended period in water will shrink and dry the wood and will ultimately ruin the knife.

This knife is made with a Japanese high carbon martensitic stainless steel alloy(SUS420J2) which has the benefit of being harder and therefore sharper than many other stainless steels but the trade-off is that they are more prone to staining.

If your knife has a wooden handle, it is recommended to oil the handle occasionally with a food grade oil. The choice of oil is a personal preference however groundnut and rapeseed oil appear to be popular but avoid olive oil as this can go rancid quite quickly. This will help maintain the wood and keep your knife looking like new. Be very careful while doing this to avoid cutting yourself.

Store knives in a dedicated storage solution such as a wooden box or wall hanger, see our knife storage options .

Keep in a safe location away from children.
