OK, thanks for all the info. If I get that slap chop (yep, splitting apart real deal!) and it breaks the first time I use it....
Just sayin'!

This is the one I have. Simple, easy to clean, works great and will chop your nuts too.Quote:

I've already got a nut grinder (I mean besides the one I divorced!:irked:), so it doesn't really matter.
I have one of those from Alaska Cutlery. Every-time I look at it I have the weirdest urge to skin a whale. :lol: That thing is sharpQuote:

Is that any good? You decide...
Only sissies can't chop onions with a good chef's knife. My sole concession to modernity is that I like to use one of those flexible, plastic sheets on which to do the chopping -- makes it easier to shuffle the onion mince (or dice) into whatever vessel is required.
My xyl (who is an admitted sissy) has one of those chop-a-slop gadgets. It mashes the onion mince, making a wet mass of mashed bits laced through with strings and strips of onion skins (the very thin membranes between the layers). One hell of a mess.
