Microplane Pedicure File

Yes. While the name references its origins as a pedicure tool, the surgical-grade stainless steel construction is identical to Microplane's culinary-grade graters, making it perfectly safe and effective for zesting citrus and grating hard cheeses.

The tool features an ergonomic, handle-free design that allows you to grip the sides directly. Because it is 12 inches long, it provides plenty of surface area to hold securely while grating over a bowl or cutting board.

Yes, the integrated magnetic backing is designed to securely attach to standard magnetic knife strips, keeping the tool accessible and off your counter space.

It is excellent for ginger. The ultra-sharp, fine-grade teeth are specifically designed to process fibrous ingredients like ginger into a fine paste or zest without leaving behind large, woody chunks.

Yes, the stainless steel construction is dishwasher safe. However, to maintain the sharpness of the blades over time, we recommend rinsing it immediately after use and hand washing when possible.

The grater includes a reusable protective cover that snaps over the blade surface. This protects your fingers when reaching into a drawer and keeps the blades from dulling against other utensils.
