More Than Half a Century of Japanese Precision

Founded in Hiroshima, Japan, in 1948, Benriner has maintained the same precision for over half a century, from the first wooden-based mandoline produced for local kitchens to today's professional plastic-steel models. Its name comes from the Japanese word benriner, meaning "convenient" — and this name summarizes the practical value it provides in the kitchen.

Modern Benriner mandolines, with their high-carbon Japanese stainless steel blades, BPA-free body, and millimeter adjustment mechanism, are a trusted standard for professional chefs and home cooks alike. Julienne, wavy cut, thin slicing — Benriner is synonymous with repeatable results.

Professional Mandolin Technique

  1. Adjust Thickness

    Adjust the slicing thickness between 0.3 – 5 mm to your desired value with the millimeter screw at the bottom. One step for precise and repeatable slices.

  2. Choose the Knife

    Main blade for straight slicing; separate blades in 3 different thicknesses for julienne cuts. Changing them out takes seconds with a screw.

  3. Slide with Protector

    Secure the vegetable with the provided safety holder. Keep your fingers away from the blade at all times — safe, professional grip.

  4. Clean & Store

    Wash with warm water and mild detergent after each use, dry thoroughly, and store on its feet. Keep away from the dishwasher.

Frequently Asked Questions

Benriner mandolines, questions about which model suits you and daily use.

Have a question? Write to us

Which Benriner model should I choose?

Classic or No. 64 for home use is sufficient — compact size, meets your basic slicing needs. Super Benriner (No. 95) for a busy kitchen is the professional choice with its larger slicing area and more durable construction. Jumbo (No. 120) for restaurants and high-volume preparation — the largest vegetables, the fastest pace. If in doubt, send us a WhatsApp message, and we'll guide you based on your usage habits.

Are julienne blades sold separately?

The Super Benriner and Jumbo Benriner models include 3 julienne blades (coarse, medium, fine) in the box. The Classic model only has the main straight blade; julienne blades can be purchased as separate accessories. Replacement is done in seconds with a screw.

What should I do for safe use?

Always use the hand guard that comes with the product. Benriner blades are extremely sharp—never get your fingers close to the slicing area. The spiked end of the guard pierces the vegetable, and you manipulate the handle. Be especially careful when slicing small pieces. Don't forget to put the blade cover back on after use.

How to clean knives?

Handwash with warm water + mild soap. Do not put it in the dishwasher — high heat damages the plastic body, and detergent dulls the blades over time. Keep away from the blade direction during cleaning; wash the exterior surface with a soft sponge. Dry thoroughly and store upright on its feet.

Can I sharpen the knives?

Benriner blades are designed to be replaced rather than sharpened. Due to their very fine geometry in a professional workshop, they are difficult to restore with home sharpening. If you experience a loss of sharpness, you can purchase spare blades or contact us for information on replacement options. With proper cleaning and storage, the blades will remain sharp for years.

Which vegetables is it suitable for?

Ideal for hard and medium-hard vegetables: carrots, zucchini, cucumber, potatoes, onions, radish, beets, cabbage, apples, pears. Caution: thin-skinned vegetables like tomatoes and peppers work better with a sharp slicing blade—do not cut them into small pieces initially. Not suitable for: meats, cheese, soft fruits (bananas, strawberries, etc.).
