Amazon.com Review
Slicing a pizza into wedges with a big rocker knife ensures that cuts will be straight and complete, and even the thickest, crustiest crust will yield quickly. This thick-bladed knife, 14 inches long and 3-1/4 inches deep, is beveled on both sides to a fine edge. Texture on the polypropylene handles gives a good grip. The knife is dishwasher-safe and carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

Customer Reviews

Cuts a pizza just like the pros!
Finally the ability to cut pizza at home without all the cheese and toppings being dragged from one side to the other! This tool is a MUST for anyone who enjoys making pizza. You can even cut homemade pizza's in Chicago-style thin crust squares (gotta have those little "corner" pieces!)

It's also great for cutting quesadillas, sandwiches, calzones, absolutely anything that a regular knife or roller-cutter rips!

Works better than rollers at a good price
Cutting pizza works best when you can quickly apply a lot of overhead leverage to cut through the crust so that cheese and topping don't have much chance to stick to the knife before lifting it to make the next cut.

The problem with a rolling cutter is that it's difficult to quickly and evenly apply much pressure with one hand as it rolls over the uneven, steaming hot sticky cheese and toppings. After the first rotation of the disk, you'll often end up with more cheese stuck on the cutter than left on the pizza, making it even more difficult to cut all the way through the crust.

There are a few minor problems with this rocker knife, though. It's too small to cut the entire diameter of a larger pizza in a single cut, so it's a bit more work than it could be for 12 inch and larger pies. The handles don't lend themselves to applying as much force as I'd like because the blade could flip on its side while cutting without reserving some effort to prevent it from doing so. The knife can't hang from an overhead rack unless I drill a hole in it myself. But these minor gripes wouldn't force me to go back to using a rolling cutter. I've used commercial pizza cutters that work better, but this represents a great value for home use compared to the typical rollers.

Best ever!
This is the greatest pizza cutter I've ever had! It's so quick, clean and easy! Also works great on fudge (been making plenty of that lately). Cleans up easy. I love that it doesn't destroy the pizza when you cut it. I'd love to give these out as gifts.
