Product Description
This is the 5mm blade block for the Matfer Bourgeat Prep Chef Manual Food Chopper. It fits the slicer attachment and is designed to produce consistent 5mm tomato slices during prep. The composite and stainless steel construction keeps the block lightweight without compromising the rigidity needed for clean, repeatable cuts.
In a working kitchen, consistency during prep directly affects presentation and portion control. A 5mm slice is a practical thickness for sandwiches, salads, and garnishing — substantial enough to hold its shape on the plate but fine enough not to overwhelm a dish. Because the block is a dedicated fitting for the Matfer Prep Chef system, it slots in cleanly and holds position during use without adjustment.
- Produces uniform 5mm slices, reducing variability in plated presentation
- Composite and stainless steel construction resists corrosion through regular washing
- Designed as a direct fit for the Matfer Prep Chef Manual Food Chopper
- Lightweight enough for extended prep sessions without operator fatigue
- Easy to swap out when changing slice thickness for different menu items
As a replacement or additional blade block, this is a straightforward purchase provided you already have the compatible Matfer Prep Chef chopper unit. It is not a standalone slicer. If you are setting up the system from scratch or are unsure which chopper model you have, it is worth confirming compatibility before ordering — the team are happy to help with that.
