As a longtime amateur chef I have tried several rubbing. Most had to use very awkward (high pressure when rubbed), the procedure very cumbersome, the results Playlist most unsatisfactory. When I had the first time, the rubbing of Razor in action, I was pleasantly surprised. The extremely sharp cutting edges and with the slightest pressure flutscht the only way. Even with bock hard Parmesan arise beautiful curled flakes, I'm thrilled. The slight pressure will reduce the risk of accidents, it does not slip off when rubbed. I can only recommend this grater!
