Specifications for this handheld round divider indicate a 12-inch diameter, allowing it to accommodate most medium-sized melons. The blades are made from 400-series stainless steel for corrosion resistance, while the handles feature a rubberized ABS "soft-touch" coating for improved grip comfort. This design is intended to keep fingers safely away from the cutting edges.
Practical safety features include the large, easy-to-grip handles that provide leverage for the vertical force required to slice through fruit. For the best experience, users should ensure the fruit is placed on a stable surface and may find that a slight "rocking" motion helps engage the blades with tougher rinds. Hand-washing is suggested to maintain the integrity of the rubberized coating over time.
For a tool that is specifically designed for the smaller, more delicate work of creating melon balls, the Olesbur 3-in-1 tool includes a dedicated scoop.
This high-speed divider is ideal for preparing large quantities of fruit wedges; find more specialized cutters in the watermelon slicers and keepers section.
