I love my mandolin but for the love of God never use one without the safety guard. I am waiting for my thumbnail to grow back after shaving it off three weeks ago. I was quite impressed to start with, it came off very clean, until the blood and tears started.

Yeowch Claire! That sounds painful. They are crazy sharp alright.

thanks Claire, will save me loads of hassle when slicing potatoes for the dauphinoise gratin. Also great to slice apples for my Breton Apple cake.
