Review: Very sharp, works well - Love this microplane. So easy to zest citrus or grate cheese. Very light weight, pretty easy to clean as long as you don't let stuff dry on it. Protective cover is great to avoid shredding your fingers in the drawer. Seems very durable and is a great value. We throw it in the top shelf of the dishwasher to clean it if there is room in there.
