cheese wire
Taut cutting strand
A cheese wire is a thin wire with handles at each end, used to slice through cheese cleanly.
The wire cuts with less resistance than a knife blade, producing neat slices without crumbling.
The same design appears in clay-cutting tools.
Cheese wire occasionally appears in thriller fiction as an improvised garrote.
