ABSTRACT:
A pizza cutter with a dull convex cutting blade and a handle having two upwardly tilting ends. The non-cutting edge of the blade is fixed into a downwardly extending portion of the handle member. One end of the handle member includes a substantially oval opening for accommodating the fingers and the opposite end of the handle member has a straight handle. Each handle has a plurality of finger receiving indentations, adapted to receive the index, middle, ring, little finger, and/or thumb of a user. In use, the hands assume their respective positions at the opposite ends of the handle. The hands are alternately moved in a rocking motion while applying a downward pressure on each handle, to cut a pizza. By requiring the placement of each hand on a specific portion of the handle member, a user's fingers will not be inadvertently placed under the blade and injured. In addition, the hands are not placed directly above the pizza, so that if a hand slips from the cutter it is less likely to make contact with the hot pizza.
