Why this cheese boards and wire earns its place
The wire is the consumable—the part that works hard and eventually needs replacing. These six spares are identical to the wire included with the CL068 cheese slicer: 520mm of stainless steel, individually ready to drop into the board's slots and cut as cleanly as the original.
Quality matters here because a dull wire doesn't just cut slower—it tears soft cheeses, crushes delicate rinds, and slows your plating rhythm. Stainless steel holds its edge longer than regular steel and resists the acid and salt that live on cheese. At 10 grams per wire, they ship light and cost little—the expense is in your time waiting for a reorder, not in the wire itself.
A pack of six covers typical kitchen usage for several months. How long they last depends on what you're slicing: hard cheeses like Parmesan dull a wire faster than semi-hard varieties. Some operations rotate a fresh wire for every shift to guarantee consistency; others stretch them to 150–200 slices per wire. Either way, having spares on hand means you're never waiting—you just drop in a fresh wire and keep going.
