Key Features & Benefits

• Deeply-Grooved Closed Star Profile: Expertly cut with sharp, gathered teeth and an extra-large 16.0 mm opening to produce high-volume, sharply textured lines, uniform star flowers, and deep ridges that hold their shape beautifully.

• Premium Stainless Steel Construction: Crafted from high-quality, seamless, rust-resistant stainless steel engineered to withstand heavy daily kitchen use without bending or losing its precise shape.
