Benriner Japanese Mandolin No.64 Ivory – Compact Vegetable Slicer with 3 Blades & Adjustable Thickness

The Benriner No. 64 Japanese Mandolin in ivory is a compact, professional-grade vegetable slicer with three interchangeable blades for fine, medium and coarse cuts and an adjustable thickness dial.

This Japanese mandolin combines a slim footprint with robust stainless steel blades and a thoughtful design that makes garnishing, batch prep and presentation faster and more consistent. It disassembles easily for cleaning, has a non-skid rubber base for stable slicing, and a rim-hooking ledge that directs slices into bowls. Whether you’re prepping paper-thin chips or chunky vegetable ribbons, the Benriner No. 64 is built to deliver uniform results with simple controls.

How simple is it to change blades and clean the mandolin?

Swapping blades on the No. 64 is tool-free and straightforward: lift the blade carrier, slide in the desired cutting blade, and lock it in place. The slim body comes apart quickly so you can rinse each component, reducing hidden food traps and speeding up sanitizing after heavy use.

• Three interchangeable stainless-steel blades: fine, medium, coarse
• Tool-free disassembly for fast rinsing and safe drying
• Smooth surfaces and large openings minimize trapped debris
• Durable blade mounts that stay secure during repeated swaps

What controls thickness and how precise are the slices?

An easy-to-read dial adjusts slice thickness so you can move from very thin to thicker cuts with precision. The mechanism offers repeatable settings so batches of identical slices are possible without guesswork, helping when you need consistent results for salads, gratins, or vegetable chips.

• Rotary thickness dial for quick, incremental adjustments
• Settings cover a practical range for paper-thin to chunky cuts
• Stable platform reduces wobble for even, predictable slices
• Suitable for vegetables, fruit, and firm cheese

How safe and stable is it during use?

The No. 64 prioritizes stability with a non-skid rubber base that grips countertops during vigorous slicing. A built-in ledge hooks onto bowl rims so slices drop neatly into a container rather than scattering across your workspace, and the compact shape keeps hands closer to the non-cutting surfaces.

• Non-skid rubber base for secure countertop placement
• Ledge designed to hook onto bowl rims for tidy collection of slices
• Low-profile form reduces unnecessary reach toward the blade
• Recommended to use a food holder or glove for maximum safety

What sizes and dimensions should I expect for storage and prep?

The mandolin measures approximately 12.6 x 4.7 x 1.6 inches, making it slim enough to store in a drawer or hang on a pegboard. Its compact length still provides a useful slicing area for whole cucumbers, potatoes, and medium-sized vegetables, while the lightweight body keeps it easy to move between prep stations.

• Overall size: 12.60 x 4.72 x 1.57 inches (32 x 12 x 4 cm)
• Compact footprint fits standard kitchen drawers or shelves
• Long enough for most household vegetables and fruit
• Lightweight for easy repositioning and storage

Who is this for: The Benriner No. 64 is aimed at home cooks, food stylists, and small-restaurant chefs who want precise, repeatable vegetable cuts without a large appliance. It’s ideal for anyone who values presentation and time-saving prep — from hobbyists preparing impressive garnishes to meal-preppers slicing large batches. If you need a durable, easy-to-clean mandolin that delivers three blade options and a secure working platform, this model provides professional-style slicing in a compact package.
