You know that everything under the sun is on the Internet these days..
there are a lot of options at this link.

My favorite wire cutter is nowhere to be found for sale online. I got
it from Martha Stewart's offerings many years ago and it is similar
to, but not quite like this:

Mine had 3 wires (the above has 2), each for a different thickness of
cutting cheeses. It is by Amco, is stainless and quite hefty. I can
find a photo, but no availability, dang it. Perhaps someone knows if
it is still sold.
