I once owned a cheap cheese cutter. It looked like an ordinary cheese
cutter that anyone could buy anywhere and anyone still can. But it was
dirt cheap and the roller fell off. From that point I could cut cheese
up to an inch and a half thick. After many years, the wire broke.
I thought it would be no big deal to get another and destroy the roller,
but it is a big deal. I can't find a cheese cutter that is made as
poorly, and the damned roller is riveted in or worse with newer cutters.
I can't remove the roller without destroying the contraption, and that's
a shame.
I crave a three and a half to four inch taught wire on prongs with an
ordinary handle. I've googled and failed, but I'm willing to be
enlightened.
