From the brand
-
Microplane is the original manufacturer to apply photo-etching technology to graters, an innovative process designed to create ultra-sharp grater blades. Made in USA, the tiny, razor-sharp teeth act like finely honed knives, cutting ingredients with precision rather than tearing them. Created as a woodworking tool, the original zester revolutionized grating in 1994 finding enthusiastic support from professional chefs & culinary enthusiasts.

DISHWASHER SAFE & EASY CLEANING
Graters (excluding Master Series) are dishwasher safe. However, to ensure that the blades stay sharp as long as possible, we recommend washing them by hand.
ADAPTABLE & SAFE PERFORMANCE
Each product we offer comes equipped with a protective cover for increased longevity and ease of storage. Our hand-held paddle graters feature non-slip rubber feet, offering superior stability.
EFFORTLESS GRATING EXPERIENCE
Thanks to the sharpness of our blades, a minimal effort is all it takes for food to glide gently and easily off the blade without needing to apply any pressure.

All stainless constructionThe all stainless construction with a comfortable round handle and a non-slip rubber foot is durable. Stainless steel is easy to keep clean and sanitary. The Microplane 2-way ribbon graters have bi-directional teeth allowing you to push or pull your food across the blade surface to grate; making the task faster. |
Photo-Etching and Surgical Grade Stainless SteelMicroplane began using this signature technology in the 1990's. Many tools on the market today use stamped or cut metal. Photo-etching creates a much finer point, which means your Microplane digs in and performs better. |
Why you should grate your own cheese by hand?A ribbon grater is a go to kitchen tool for creating healthier option foods. Fresh grated cheese does not contain all the additives and preservatives found in pre-shredded packaged cheeses. As a result, you will be delighted with a creamier texture and fresher cheese taste! |

Product Description
Product Description
Microplane 38002 Profesional Series Ribbon Grater 188 Stainless Steel
Amazon.com
This manual grater cuts medium-sized ribbons of cheese, butter, or chocolate with ease and, as an additional timesaver, grates in either direction. Originally designed for shaving wood, the patented 18/8 stainless-steel Microplane blade has razor-sharp teeth that make grating effortless and that wont clog. The large 5-by-2-1/2-inch grating surface can accommodate bigger ingredients, such as a head of cabbage for cole slaw, and the matching 18/8 stainless-steel frame and satin-finish offer durable support for the blade. The grater has a non-slip rubber grip just above its head to keep it steady on a tabletop during grating. A plastic safety cover is also included to keep fingers safe and to keep the blade from dulling while in storage. This grater is dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. --Cristina Vaamonde

Metal construction means you can put it in the dishwasher without worry. The rubber coated "foot" allows you to grate without it sliding around. Mostly, I appreciate the product for what I don't see. (dulled cutting surfaces, plastic frames that crack, accumulation of muck on/in the handle, ...)
Also, it comes with a plastic cover. I recommend you keep that. (see prior note about avoiding grating off finger tips)
So, I decided when I bought a new ribbon grater, I was paying for the the pro version, whatever the cost. ("Pro" always seems to make it cost more..)
Imagine my surprise when I found an all metal Pro Microplane ribbon grater- that was CHEAPER than the home series version!!
Since I have A. Prime, I only had to wait 2 days for my new kitchen tool. It was delivered at 6 and I was using within 30 minutes (had to remove the sticker goo😒).
HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN!!! I was SO pleased with the stability of the grater (husband didn't quite understand my giddiness when I showed him). My old home series holder fit on the blade (going to buy the pro soon) & I was happily grating the last of the cheddar for tacos again.
I love this so much, I'm buying the teenager one to take to college this fall so she has one that won't break in the middle of using it- ever!
Now, to buy the rest of the grating blades in the pro series... 😍
About the size, shape, grip and other overall design of the 38000 series, these graters are very well thought out and executed. They are very convenient to use on a bowl, a pan, and a cutting board. They are also very easy to use on the serving dishes in the last steps of presentation.
At the time of this writing, I have used 3 products in 38000 series, plus the slider attachment. I bought different graters so that I can experiment with all sorts of ingredients to make novel garnishes, or something interesting that people wouldn't think of. The manufacturer says this shaver is good for chocolate, soft cheese, and butter, but I was hoping that it would work with vegetables and other things to make pretty flakes. Does it work just as well with other ingredients? Well, sort of. This grater says "ribbon grater" but the actual shape of shaved stuff is not quite "ribbon" with most things I tried: not thick enough and not long enough. But it works with more things than the large shaver, and in this sense I can say this product is more versatile. However, the resulting shape I get from this grater is not as interesting as those I get from large shaver. I don't see as much creative potential in this product as in the large shaver, but it may be just me. It is certainly more interesting than fine zester/grater, since the latter is very predictable in what it does and what you get.
I may try more graters in this series if I get some idea of how I can make use of other blades.

Weltklasse zum adäquaten Preis
Dieses Teil ist jeden Cent wert
Resistente, sempre affilata, efficiente… una garanzia!
La consiglio vivamente!
I most often use it to grate raw sweet potatoes. The shavings are much easier to chew than any other type of grater I have used.
I also make easy to eat coleslaw with various different vegetables.
