OK, I get an egg slicer, just because they’re actually a pain in the ass to slice by hand. But this? This is ridiculous.
Most kitchen "gadgets" that are effectively an alternative to the classic combination of a knife and cutting board (such as this one) are typically assistive devices for those unable to safely/effectively operate a knife. Even though a dull table knife would generally be more than sufficient to cut a banana, not everybody can so much as properly grip one.
Kids. It's safer than a knife for kids.
Well, most kids.
my kid managed to go full cenobite on himself with an apple slicer, but luckily it was only plastic.
