Definition
A tool with wires or blades designed to cut cheese into slices or wedges without crushing it.
Etymology
Compound of 'cheese' (from Old English 'cēse', from Latin 'caseus') and 'cutter' (from Old English 'cyttan'). The term emerged in the 19th century as cheese consumption became widespread and specialized kitchen tools were developed.
Kelly Says
Before the cheesecutter was invented, cutting hard cheeses required serious strength and often resulted in crumbly, uneven pieces—this simple tool revolutionized how people served cheese at the table, becoming a status symbol in Victorian kitchens.
