Hey, there! It's still doing great. I've only even sharpened it once, and it's not because I was noticing a big difference in slicing quality, but because I wanted to play with the sharpening attachment. I haven't had anything yet that would have made the 12" model necessary...maybe if you were working with some rather long bacon that you wanted in really long strips, or if you had a massive roast (I'm thinking maybe for roast beef/French dip sandwiches) that you wanted to keep in really large slices or something. All in all, I'm still quite pleased. Thanks for watching!
@@ThisDadGoesTo11 Awesome, thanks for the reply. Now I just need to keep chipping away at the wife until she agrees to let me have another large piece of kit.
@@ToddZilla813 Haha! I hear you. Convincing others that these expenses are worth it can be tricky... maybe ask for forgiveness, rather than permission? 🤣
I'm assuming the part where it was trying to suck the cheese though is why they don't recommend using this slicer with cheese on Webstaurant store but it seems like it's perfectly serviceable for the money.
Yeah, I just had to try that raclette through there. I actually didn't mind it for that purpose, and I found it worked a bit better than trying to slice it by hand. I'd do that again, especially if I'm using the slicer on meat at the same time, anyway. I do love this slicer, for sure. Thanks for watching!
You shocked me using the slicer for the mushrooms and I'm sure for the onions you have a mandolin somewhere in your repertoire of kitchen utensils. I'm sure you were just playing around just to see what it does
Yeah, precisely. I was pushing the limits to see what it could do. It cannot do mushrooms very well. 🤣 I do like it for onions, though. I find it can get a little thinner than I've been able to with my mandolin. It's ideal for things like smash burgers, when you smash the onions right in with the meat. Thanks for watching! 😁
We got it from Webstaurant. I just checked, and they still have it in stock: www.webstaurantstore.com/avantco-sl310-10-manual-gravity-feed-meat-slicer-1-4-hp/177SL310.html. I was really happy with their customer service, as there was a slight issue with the first one, and they immediately sent out a replacement unit.
Dang! I think I show a bit more of that angle in my unbox video for that slicer. Maybe that will help: th-cam.com/video/D8x2yGpYsx8/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching and the comment!
It would be nice if you sliced chicken breast and pork tenderloin with this slicing machine. There isn’t much to find with those kinda meats rather than the usual beef and cheese
Yeah, I should totally whip up some chicken breast on this thing! I promise the next time I have fondue, I'll record slicing it nice and thin. It should work well for that. I do have a video slicing cured and dry-aged pork tenderloins, if that helps. :) th-cam.com/video/gZ4AkwIB5kU/w-d-xo.html
How's this slicer doing after a year? Do see any times where you wish you would have bought the 12" model?

@@ThisDadGoesTo11 That is pretty much my plan. 😂

Where did this come from. ? I see a SupplyGB company very cheap.. not sure if they are even a real company.

Wish you had showed your cutting side process
