KA-BAR 'Za Saw Pizza Cutter

KA-BAR is the name on the famous Marine Corps fighting knife, so a pizza cutter from them shows up with some swagger. The ‘Za Saw keeps the design simple: a 3-inch wheel of 440A stainless steel on a black Creamid handle, 7.5 inches long and about a third of a pound, made in the USA.

Most of the fun is the name. A pizza cutter from a company best known for military knives makes a good gag gift for whoever runs pizza night, and it happens to be a sturdy tool from a maker that builds blades for a living. Set it next to a homemade pie and someone will ask about it.

It pairs well with a pizza stone or an outdoor oven, and it’s an easy add-on for anyone already shopping for a camping or kitchen knife.

The catch is that it is still a pizza wheel. A well-built one, but a wheel all the same, so it won’t make a thick deep-dish crust any easier, and the joke lands best with someone who knows the KA-BAR name.
