Wow, I received an incredible gift certificate and of course, had to spend it right away!!! Finally going to have a nice meat slicer - this is the one I bought.
http://www.cooking.com/products/shprodde.asp?SKU=301986No way in h*ll I could have justified buying this one without the certificate. I'm so excited for the 8th of January to get here and I can play with it. Now my bacon will be sliced properly!
and pizza toppings.

Wow, that's really cool! But I hope to one up you when I get my grinder in February! Hopefully, the smoke house will be finished by then. He's promised!

Wow that is nice!!! You can get whole cuts of meat and slice to exactly what you want
Cheeses too.
BTW my slicer saved my arm when I had to slice 16 baguettes for appetizer and they had to be about 1/8 of a inch thick. Freeze them partially first and it's a breeze

That is so nice Jean! Funny, I just watched the Seinfeld episode where Kramer buys one so he can always have fresh cold cuts. I would love to have one some day.

Loved the first review entry: THIS SLICER IS FAIR FOR IN HOME USE. THIS SLICER IS AN EXPENSIVE KITCHEN TOY.

Oh how fun! I would love to have one. My parents had one when I was growing up. I was never allowed to use it, but was fascinated when my dad sliced meat. It was paper thin for sandwiches. I bet there is a lot you could use them for. You will have so much fun.
