A julienne razor is a good idea but unfortunately it does not work perfectly. Indeed, on hard vegetables like carrots, a lot of waste is made. I do not recommend it for the clumsy like me, I cut myself several times because it is a little hard to use, it is often necessary force to get beautiful regular cuts. That said it is comfortable to handle with its well designed handle and being able to close it thanks to the small plastic cover is great. Overall I am rather disappointed by this product that made me lose more time than anything else and created a big waste of vegetables.
