This is the crescent moon-shaped knife with an extra-long blade that effortlessly cuts pizzas into perfect wedges, spanning even a large pie in a single cut. The mezzaluna, invented by Silvio Pacitti in Italy during the early 18th century, is safer to use than a traditional knife because the two-handle design keeps your fingers out of the way and allows you to apply even leverage with a smooth rocking motion. The non-stick stainless steel blade also slices right through blocks of pecorino and parmesan, minces herbs and garlic, and easily cuts crunchy veggies and hard sausages so you can put together charcuterie boards in no time. Oak handles fit securely in the palm for a steady grip. Imported. 2" H x 4" W x 17 1/4" L. (4 lbs.)
