CUSTOMER REVIEW



This seemed gimmicky, but I was game to try it with the holiday season coming up and many pies to serve. Over time I've collected a number of pie and cake servers, but none really do as well as I'd like. The advantages of this server caught my attention so I decided to give it a try and I'm quite pleased with it.



The serrated blade does a good job in cutting a slice. While you may not need that sharp blade for a pumpkin pie, I found it's really a help for apple pie and vegetable quiche both of which can have firmer textured pieces that need to be bisected when cutting a slice. Because the blade part is offset, I found I can lower the entire blade into the pie plate to effectively cut the slice cleanly when needed. The blade itself is 5 1/4" long and works even with the large pie plates I use. The drop from the lowest part of the handle to bottom of the blade when in the cutting position is 2" and the wide part of the blade itself is 2 1/2". That does a good job of accommodating my thick apple pie. The blade offset when you hold the server flat to lift the cut slice from the pie plate is 1" from handle to blade so it gets into my pie plates effectively. The blade is somewhat flexible so I can get it down under the slice with minimum disruption to the bottom crust.



The handle is comfortable to hold and because the blade is sharp, it's nice to have the blade guard for storage. Although I haven't used this server on cake, I don't know why it wouldn't be good for that too. With the sharp blade you wouldn't have to saw and disrupt the frosting, just cut straight down to the cake plate.



I'm left-handed so I'm using the server backwards from how most people would, but it still works fine. I like having both the cutting and serving activities married into one tool (less to wash and take to gatherings). I'm pleased with this server and would rebuy.
