GI Metal Pizza Cutter with Removable Stainless Steel Blade — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the GI Metal Pizza Cutter with Removable SSD Blade?
This is a professional pizza wheel (model AC-ROP6) featuring a sharp stainless steel blade that can be removed and sharpened. It comes with an ergonomic polymer handle designed for durability and control.
What are its key specifications and features?
• Blade: tempered stainless steel, 100 mm (≈ 4″) diameter, removable and re-sharpenable.
• Handle: ergonomic polymer construction (blue handle) that resists heat, shocks, and scratches.
• Overall dimensions: ~10″ × 4″ (length × width) according to product listings.
• Model number: AC-ROP6.
How do I remove and sharpen the blade?
1. Unscrew or unlock the retaining fastener (depending on the cutter version).
2. Carefully lift out the blade disc from the housing.
3. Use a suitable sharpening stone or wheel to hone the edge, maintaining the original bevel.
4. Reinstall the blade, ensuring it spins freely and is securely fastened.
How should I use it for best results?
• Hold the handle firmly and guide the wheel straight through the pizza surface in one smooth motion.
• Avoid twisting or sawing motions, which risk tearing toppings.
• Make sure the blade is well sharpened—dull blades lead to dragging or shreds.
• After cutting, wipe both sides of the blade to remove sauce or debris before next use.
How do I clean and maintain the cutter?
• Wash by hand using warm soapy water; avoid immersing the handle’s internal mechanism.
• Dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion, especially at the blade mount area.
• Regularly check the fastener for tightness, especially after removing/reinstalling the blade.
• Store the cutter where the blade is protected (e.g. blade guard or sheath).
