A kitchen utensil designed to cut cleanly through the delicate flesh of an avocado to produce individual slices of the fruit. Typically made with fine wires or plastic blades attached to the head of this tool, the Avocado Slicer is formed to match the outline of an avocado. To use the slicer, first cut the avocado in half, lengthwise cutting around the seed and remove it from one of the halves. One half of the avocado is held in the palm while the slicer begins at the bottom end or largest rounded area of the fruit, moving it from one end to the other, staying within and using the outer skin as a guide for the slicing.
