ABSTRACT:
A foodstuff slicer and server, comprising an integral band made of a rigid material, the band having three equally spaced transverse hinges and forming a lozenge structure defining a first pair of transversely opposite sides which constitute cutting blades, and a second pair of transversely opposite sides which constitute handles. A coil spring is secured to the handles to bias the angle of the cutting blades to a predetermined maximum value. Upon cutting foodstuff in a sector piece with the blades, the handles may be drawn one toward the other against the bias of the coil spring, first to determine the size of the foodstuff to be sliced, then to slice the foodstuff. Then the handles are slightly further drawn towards each other to secure the sector piece of foodstuff for transporting same. The sector piece of foodstuff is released upon release of the handles.
