xEffortless garlic prep with a compact, Japanese-crafted slicer
The Shimomura FV-607 is a purpose-built tool designed to streamline small-quantity prep. Crafted in Japan’s Niigata-Tsubame-Sanjo region, it features a double-edged stainless steel blade that cuts cleanly through garlic with minimal effort. A dedicated holder guards your fingers and helps reduce odor transfer, letting you work quickly and neatly. The tool’s clean lines and compact footprint fit comfortably in a busy kitchen, encouraging precise slices without crowding the counter.
Versatile in one compact tool
Although garlic is the primary use, the FV-607 also handles leeks and other small vegetables with similar ease. The reverse side doubles as a grating surface for condiments or flavor boosters, giving you a simple way to add texture and depth to your dishes without swapping tools. This combination of slicing and grating capability makes it a handy helper for quick flavor boosts and small-batch prep.
Quality details you can feel
Durable construction blends a stainless steel blade with an ABS resin body, providing a lightweight yet solid feel in hand.

The tool is heat-resistant up to 176°F (80°C), which speaks to its practical design for everyday kitchen tasks.
