The Velocicut cutting head strip cuts carrots or potatoes. The unique blade design substantially reduces feathering on preheated or unpreheated potatoes. The blades are held together by tension and do not have a sharp knife edge. The Velocicut produces clean, accurate cuts and reduces feathered edges and downstream breakage. Use the same blade and block to produce different sizes of square, rectangular strips, or slices.
