The handle has been made from locally salvaged wood which would otherwise become waste and go to landfill. Each handle is unique and carries with it history from its past life. Simply oil regularly and keep out of the dishwasher to keep your utensil in top condition.
Ostehøvel, a modern cheese slicer or cheese plane, was invented by Thor Bjørklund in 1925 in Norway. Mass production of the Ostehøvel cheese slicer started during 1927 in Lillehammer, Norway. The design was based on the carpenter's plane. This style of slicer is very common in the Nordic countries, and in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany.
