Abstract:

The cheese knife is constructed with a rectangular frame having four blades with cutting edges on the bottom and with a pair of crossing blades within the frame having cutting edges on the bottom. In one pass through a cheese block, the block can be cut in half while four equal-sized pieces are simultaneously cut from one of the halves of the block. In a second pass, the remaining half of the cheese block can be cut into four equal-sized pieces. The knife has a pair of handles which are curved to avoid injury to the user's knuckles during use.
