    Description

    It is my goal to accurately represent the item you are bidding on. The photos should include every surface and a variety of angles. Specific notable flaws will be shown in specific photos. I try to accurately describe flaws so there are no surprises when you open the box at home. Please look carefully at the photos and contact me with questions BEFORE bidding. Please note that the highly reflective curved surfaces make photography a challenge for this amateur.
    PLEASE READ ALL THE BORING STUFF BELOW BEFORE YOU BID.
    My mother was a collector. Of many things, including kitchen items.
    She most likely found this death utensil at a thrift shop or garage sale and could not resist it. I can see why.
    This insanely dangerous onion slicer includes an emergency room visit GUARANTEED with every onion. Modern consumer safety testers would soil themselves at the mere sight of this finger shredder.
    Obviously made for export to the US and other English speaking nations, I suspect this was part of a larger effort to cripple Germany's foes, one Mom at a time. It looks like a post WWII item, so it could be a revenge thing. However, if made prior to 1939 it would fall into place with other secret weapons developed to demoralize the enemy.
    We may never know the complete truth, but this horrific kitchen weapon could be yours.
    Bid early, bid often, bid wildly.
