It all started in 1994 with an orange cake. Frustrated by her clunky grater, the baker snagged one of her husband’s prized woodworking tools and...presto! Recognized the world over for their original photo-etching technology (read: ultra-sharp graters), Microplane makes all their products in the USA from surgical-grade steel. That means they're built to last, well, for more citrus cakes than you can shake a zester at.

Love 'em!

Works beautifully, as advertised. No more cold butter on warm toast. Microplane is a handy size, and out on the counter most of the time.

Works very well on hard butter

It is convenient for very hard butter, but be careful, it has a super sharp edge that can catch you off guard.

wish I could give it zero stars!!!

butter blade was of no help and sharper on side that did not come in contact with butter, it sliced my finger!! Very flimsy and does not stand up to refrigerated butter...DO NOT BUY!!!
