Above you will find pictured a Japanese Mandolin with a ceramic blade. This particular version is made by Kyocera and can be purchased for around $20. It's very useful for slicing things very thinly, like potato chips.
You will notice that it comes with a handy plastic guard. This guard should be placed between your hand and the food you are slicing since the ceramic blade is quite sharp.
If you do not place the guard between your hand and the, say, potato, that you're slicing you may find yourself at the urgent care center. And the doctor may ask you if you brought the piece of your finger that you sliced off. And you may have to answer no, because it's amazing how much thinly sliced potatoes look like thinly sliced pinky fingers. The doctor may then give you a shot in the hip of some lovely pain killer along with a prescription for percocet.
Mom, I'm fine.
