@bosskev: I've had many hours of fun with this software. Back when I was going to the gym, I was planning to animate my transformation, but... see beginning of sentence.

@itchytooth: Not planning to display any morphing gifs, certainly did not take any lovely "before" shots. However, if the demand is there, I could still create a reasonable simulation. All I'd need are two similarly-posed photos of Brad Pitt and Jabba the Hutt.

@Trowble (XBL/PSN): Are you some sort of half man, half Italian, half Chinese, and half robot type hybrid? If you are, then you're more of a man than me.

Thank god - I was tired of constantly ruining the cardboard box that every pizza in the entire world comes in. What company is delivering pies on porcelain dishes?

Hiphopopotamus

@BiZarRroBALlmeR: Mmmm, Bertucci's... when're they coming to Seattle? I miss 'em.

This product is unnecessary if you're comfortable with circular slices of pizza!

Harlan

That's the best damn invention I have EVER seen!

@bosskev: I hope there is going to be an animated body morphing gif at the end.

itchytooth

Damn it Giz, I'm craving a Bertucci's pizza...

The Italian in me will stick with the pizza cutter. The gadget-loving-Chinese in me will stick to the pizza cutter as well.

Trowble (XBL/PSN)

I almost like it, but they didn't follow through on their own concept.

Take the same device but make the spatula part into a variable angle protractor-like gauge that sets the width of the cut, calibrated not in degrees but in "how many slices", THEN you've got a winner.

'Course, my solution is just to eat out, let the pizzeria staff do all that for me. (That is, once the happy day returns that I can eat pizza again. Officially halfway there, folks.) (-32)

bosskev

I can't wait to try this on a lemon meringue pie.

BiZarRroBALlmeR

They should put scissors on both sides and connect the mechanism so you can cut out just one slice with one attempt.

Kobe_No_Means_No

My mom cuts pizza with scissors. It's a good hack. But it sure doesn't require specialized pizza scissors! Regular scissors work just fine.

fullerenedream

That pizza looks disgusting!

Carmen turns 19 in 3 days!!!

So clever, yet so... unnecessary. I recognize a kindred spirit here.

itchytooth

I'd rather have this than a wheel, since this won't scratch the crap out of a non-stick pan, and all the non-metal wheels I've seen are more than that anyway. And this thing should be able to power through the worst $3 frozen pizza pepperoni without just cramming it into the cut.

TVGenius

On another note that looks like really good pizza.

SirNirian

Meh.

It's fun searching for, finding and subsequently breaking in a good Pizza cutter.

This looks neither fun nor fun nor delicious.

Invention of the Year? /sarcasm

PC+Mac Coexist

While its a great idea, if it only cuts one side, how are you meant to cut the first slice of Pizza with that, it just wouldn't work

resistance100

I used to have a pair of cuff links like this but in silver...

Everybody. Just smile and nod and back away s l o w l y . . .

i love the idiocy in this comment thread. i particularly like the guy whos never cooked his own pizza. i swear, people carry within themselves at all times the means of their own destruction. it may take only a pair of pizza scissors to reveal its shape. which is round, apparently.

aestheticity

@Hiphopopotamus: This invention does seem kind of unnecessary, but I'd like to point out that I don't think this is meant for pizza delivered in cardboard boxes, anyway. Those pizzas come sliced...

catheriz

The more I look at these scissors the more they appeal to me, and I have no idea why.

I am pretty sure they would look great jammed in the drawer with all the other useless, but cool gadgets that I never use, like the tea bag squeezer and that egg separator that keeps getting caught on my Ginzu knife.

@ヨシダさん 25: Yea, my parents were hippies. It's the only reason I can come up with.

Trowble (XBL/PSN)

@ヨシダさん 25: I think he was referring to the Italian guy he was bottoming for.

...see, what I did there was...

drjayphd

...so I'm the only person who thinks this is totally awesome? :(

man in gauze is king ramses II, silly.

@drjayphd: I think you're wrong, smartyguy.

Trowble (XBL/PSN)

So, lets just take and snap that unecessary plate that comes with the scissors and lets go cut some subs, garlic bread, or enormous(sp?) snowflakes

Lodlaiden_

You nutty purists and your rolling cutting tools. A pizzeria does best with this quick slicing equipment, but you don't need that stuff at home, and I'll be damned if I have anyone running their damn circular blades on my good cookware, or ye may venture hitherto unexplored realms of culinary cruelty.

Kaiser-Machead's Chips Ahoy!

This looks better than the cutting wheel. I dont have a cutting wheel myself. This does look more useful.

Mecharine

@man in gauze is king ramses II, silly.: Nope, me too.

remps

@bosskev: The spatula part will go under the pie with the scissor part open, then you cut and move right and cut out the sclice, but again, real scissors would be easier.

ColdAsIce

@Hiphopopotamus: What place delivers uncut pie? I think this is more for the "home made" (i.e. freezer made) pies.

Scissors are really the best way to cut without pulling all of the topping off when you get stuck on a damn pepperoni, but I don't think you need to take it to this extreme.

ColdAsIce

to become a truly awesome product, this device could benefit from a lazer cutting guide.
