Redditors describe owning the same wire slicer for decades, including one inherited from a great aunt that looks unchanged since the 1990s, while several report newer wire slicers breaking quickly by comparison.

The good old westmark slicer from Germany, right?
We had this exact one.
We have the exact same one! It was my great aunts, always assumed it was older than me since it's looked just like that since the 90's
I've managed to break one of these before.... Ended up buying another one from the same thrift store we got the first one from
yes my parents have one in the drawer next to the sink, and yes, I was gifted one when I moved out, and yes, it was thrifted.
