Mandoline not Mandolin_023

Manolines, which are vegetable slicers and not musical instruments, usually have a guide or handle which is used to hold the food item in place to allow safe movement of the food over the blade. This is the underside of a mandoline guide showing the tiny conical knobs and the 3 small pins which hold the food item securely. The metal pins retract and protract.
