meat slicer
A meat slicer, also called a slicing machine, deli slicer or simply a slicer, is a tool used in butcher shops and delicatessens to slice meats, sausages, cheeses and other deli products. As compared to a simple knife, using a meat slicer requires less effort, as well as keeps the texture of food more intact.{{Cite web|title=Best Meat Slicer|url=https://tastyslicing.com/best-meat-slicers/|website=Tastyslicing.com|date=25 June 2020 |author1=Mark }} Generally, slicers can be adjusted easily to cut slices of variable thickness.
