10 Review: Very Handy, Somewhat Fragile and VERY SHARP!! Great kitchen tool. - Bought the 6 slice and the 8 slice cutters and they work great for marking portions on my cheesecakes and other kitchen creations. I actually will rotate the cutter 1/2 way and double the number of portions for very rich desserts, like the cheesecakes, to avoid waste. Once marked, depending on the density of the product, I use a thin damp knife to do the rest of the cutting, or cut through with the cutter. The pie cutter may or may not be the best way to go for the complete cut to the bottom. But I use it often and store it carefully, it is VERY SHARP on the bottom cutting side and the entire unit is pretty light weight. Make sure you dry it completely after hand washing it, because it WILL begin to rust if water is left on it. I wrap mine in a towel and then store in plastic before housing it in the cupboard to prevent it from getting bent or nicked, because the cutting dividers are quite thin and fragile. Storing it this way also prevents it from scratching other things..Bottom edge of dividers ARE VERY SHARP!! Review: Makes Quick Work of Dividing 8", 9", or 10" Pie Into Six Equal Wedges - This 6-SLICE PIE CUTTER PRESS makes quick work of dividing an 8-inch, 9-inch, or 10-inch pie into six equal wedges. (It's the same size and functionally the same as the American Metalcraft PC6 6-Cut Pie Cutter, 10-Inch . I purchased both, because I bake both 9-inch and 10-inch pies, and mistakenly thought that the "10-inch" model was designed specially for 10-inch pie plates.) You will still need a knife or a pie server with a serrated edge to finish separating the wedges. You simply take hold of the handles, center the frame over the pie, and press down. It's a good idea to end with a slight rocking motion, to finish cutting the thicker crust on the rim of the pie dish. The cutter works best on a pie that has completely cooled. If the pie filling hasn't set up, the cut pie slices will want to fall apart when you take them out of the baking dish. The cutter may cause very thin pie crust to crumble a bit at the center (at the tips of the pie wedges), because you have slightly less control than when you're slicing your pie with a sharp knife. The pie cutter is stainless steel, and is dishwasher safe. I've been hand washing mine, because it takes up a lot of space in the dishwasher. A cutter that makes six servings is the right one for my household (two adults), but if you need to get more servings per pie, this 8-Slice Pie Cutter Press, 18/8 Gauge Stainless Steel, Commmercial Grade, Side-Handles works equally well.

Does it’s job, but it’s sharp and bulky to store.
Not nearly as excited about this as I thought I would be. I bought it because my mom has a plastic one and it works well. Hers is smaller, does not have sharp edges and is easy to store. I have so many kitchen gadgets that I’m going to get rid of ones that I don’t use much and aren’t easy to store—this is #1 to get rid of. Don’t get me wrong, it does it’s job, but I don’t need something this sharp to cut through a pie, especially when I have to store the bulky “knife”. I knew it was a 6 piece cutter, but you would also need to purchase other sizes for say rich pie, cheesecake, etc. would rather use a knife and possibly have uneven pieces.

Worked GREAT!
Purchased for a bridal shower to evenly cut a 10" quiche into 6 pieces. Worked very well cutting the quiche and bottom crust, but did not cut all the way to the top edge of the crust. We used a knife to cut the top edge with no problem. It is difficult to wash, but was worth the purchase. Washed best using a cloth-not a sponge.

Love this pie cutter!
Absolutely love this pie cutter! It cuts pies beautifully but you have to be very careful because it's very sharp! But don't let that scare you.Highly recommend!

Works great!
I have tried several other ways to cut 6 slices of quiche evenly that have not worked well. This pie cutter works wonderfully. The only thing to look out for is that it has sharp edges, so keep them covered with bubble wrap or something similar when you put it away.

cake and pies cutter
I bought one for myself, and liked it so much, I bought 3 others to give at Christmas to my sister, niece, and a friend. It is deep enough to mark cakes and pies, but not deep enough to go all the way down to the bottom, however, pies and cakes marking were clear enough so that the kids could not say one got a larger piece than another (as kids like to do!)

Excellent, Must-Have Commercial Kitchen Tool!
This handy device is super sharp and super helpful in ensuring that pie pieces are cut uniformly...some of our servers seem to have been drinking when they try to cut straight lines in a pie! LOL So, this removes all guessing and lack of spatial relations. :)
