Abstract: A slicing device includes a base for supporting a foodstuff to be sliced and a repositionable knife or blade having a pair of bosses disposed at one end of the blade that extends outwardly away from the blade. The pair of bosses of the blade is coupled to a blade holding rack that acts as a pivot or fulcrum for the blade. The pivot or lever action of the blade permits a user to easily cut through large or hard foodstuff. In one embodiment, the blade is adjustable in the rack to permit a user to lower the blade to make successively deeper slices into and eventually through the foodstuff.
