Not Okay

Sweden uses the Norwegian cheese cutters too. Like wtf even is that other one..? O.o

*gasp* WHAT?! you don't use NORWEGIAN CHEESE CUTTERS??? And here...I thought we were friends D:

Typically, Denmark makes bigger, but softer cheeses. The string version is typically greater at spanning more cheese, but unles it's reinforced, you should never use a string cheese cutter on a hard cheese. Many Danes, however, use the "Norwegian" one, for peeling the the outer layer off of the softer cheese.

I've seen both kinds for sale in Canada, though the wire one didn't stick around very long (people found the wire's snapped off after a while).

To be honest with you though, though I've used both in different kitchens at times, in my own, I just use a knife.
Lets me choose how thick I want to cut the cheese, depending on what I'm putting the cheese on. Easier to clean.

Isnt that what people use to peel carrots or potatoes?!

@Emiie_P Nope, very different - the usual danish cheese cutter is basically a very thin wire, not a blade.

@Violetta Huh, it still sounds weird. I’ve only used that kind of cheese cutter once and it was a while ago so idk

Ostehøvlen er en norsk opfindelse, så det er faktisk den oprindelige ostehøvl du ser Norge stå med. :P

@EricTheRedAndWhite Oh, Yea det hved jeg^^ jeg har bare aldrig prøvet at bruge en før og de ser lidt forvirrende ud til mig men tak for informationen xD

I rarely see the type Norway has... Sorry, Norwegians.

@DanishPride ive actually never seen the danish one in my life in scotland hehe

I mostly use those both as potato peelers

Denmark, what the hell even is THAT? Like what?

@Mixu That almost looks like the knife we use for peeling apples without ability to drill the core out.

@Suominoita I know. Ok, its makes some sense.

and i'm just here using a knife & cheese grater :')
