Reading edition

Cutting board with knife guide
Cutting board with knife guide

The board illustrated was suggested by a device used by a “sandwich man,” and proved practical for use in the home and especially in the camp. Potatoes, or other articles of food to be sliced, are placed in the hollow portion of the board and moved against the edge at the right, under the knife. The guide, which may be adjusted by means of the wing nut, permits slices of varying thickness to be cut.—Robert C. Knox, St. Petersburg, Fla.
