Samurai, Japanese Mandolin Slicer (Adjustable)
Fast, Even Slices and Julienne, Every Time
The Japanese mandolin is one of the great prep workhorses, and this Samurai is the classic Benriner-style design that professional kitchens reach for. A razor-sharp stainless blade and an adjustable thickness setting let you turn out perfectly uniform slices, from translucent for a gratin or salad to chunkier for pickles, and a set of teeth handle fine julienne. It is quick, precise and consistent in a way that is hard to match by knife at speed, and it comes with a hand guard to keep fingers clear of the blade.
Why Chefs Choose This
- Uniform cuts, fast: identical slices and julienne in seconds
- Adjustable thickness: from paper-thin to chunky, dialled in precisely
- Razor-sharp stainless blade: durable, hygienic and easy to clean
- Hand guard included: holds the vegetable safely against the blade
How to Use
- Set the thickness: adjust the blade to the cut you want
- Use the guard: hold the vegetable in the hand guard, never bare-handed near the end
- Slice or julienne: run it down the blade in a steady stroke
- Clean: rinse, dry and store with the blade protected
万能野菜調理器 — The all-purpose Japanese slicer
The Japanese mandolin, often called by the famous brand name Benriner, earned its place in kitchens worldwide by doing one thing supremely well: producing fast, even, repeatable cuts. Where a knife relies entirely on the cook's hand, the mandolin's fixed, adjustable blade guarantees consistency, which matters when you need fifty identical slices for a gratin, even rounds for pickling, or fine julienne for a garnish. Compact and quick to set up, it is the tool you reach for whenever uniformity and speed matter more than the showmanship of the knife.
What can I make with it?
Plenty. Wafer-thin potato for crisps and gratins, even cucumber and radish for salads and pickles, fine julienne of carrot or daikon for garnish, and neat rounds of onion. Anything that benefits from uniform thickness, in quantity, is a job for the mandolin. Always use the hand guard, especially as you near the end of the vegetable.

Can I adjust the slice thickness?
Yes. The blade adjusts so you can set anything from paper-thin to a chunkier cut, which is what makes one mandolin so versatile across crisps, gratins, salads and pickles. Combined with the julienne teeth, it covers most fine-cutting jobs.
Is it safe to use?
A mandolin blade is extremely sharp, so always use the supplied hand guard to hold the vegetable, particularly as you reach the end. Used with the guard it is safe and fast; used without it, mandolins are a common cause of kitchen cuts, so make the guard a habit.
How do I clean it?
Rinse it under running water straight after use, taking great care around the blade, and dry it well. The stainless blade is durable and easy to keep clean; store it so the blade is protected and not exposed in a drawer.
