If your blade is dull it is not only dangerous, but also exerts more effort to make a simple spiral. That can cost valuable time during prep work. A Benriner K8BLM Japanese Turning Slicer Julienne Medium Replacement Blade is ideal to replace an old or dull blade. It is also great to keep on hand in the event one gets lost in the busy kitchen. Having a super sharp stainless steel blade means faster results with minimal effort.
This Medium blade has 20 teeth and also can be used with the Benriner Cooks Help.
