If you’re a cyclist and love pizza, you’re not alone - they go together like, well, pizza and beer. And bikes. Anyway, for the lover of both vertical and horizontal discs, we present the Park Tool Pizza Tool, official designation PZT-2. It is the very personification of Bauhaus; form following function. And in this case the function is to cut your pizza swiftly while having fun doing it.
Built by cycling’s best tool company, the Pizza Tool has a permanent place on my kitchen counter - always standing by in its blue plastic kickstand and ready for some serious pizza cuttin’. I’m the proud owner of the previous version of the tool (presumably the PZT-1), which is still razor sharp after years of cutting through pizzas big and small.
The Park Pizza Tool has two main advantages over the competition; first it is shaped like a bike, which announces to visitors and housecleaners alike that you are a lover of the bicycle and not above putting sports-related fashion statements on your kitchen counter. Secondly, Park Tools make precision tools used on the best bikes in the world by the best mechanics in the world. So you know it’s sharp, and the stainless steel will shed even the gooiest mozzarella with just a quick rinse.
The clever ergonomic design allows the pizza cutter (you) to slice and dice while literally riding the little blue polycarbonate bike (technically unicycle) across your pizza pie. Just grab the rear wheel and leverage down on the saddle with your thumb and you’ll make a fun - and productive - cross country ride through meat, veggies and crust alike in seconds.
It may not be the most technologically advanced gadget in your kitchen, but I bet it will be one of the most useful. And at $16 it’s a great value as well. Available at your favorite bike shop, or online at the link below. Just don’t try to fix your bike with it.
