Editor's Notes
August 06, 2019:
Pizza cutters have come a long way since the good old days, and we wanted this list to reflect that. We prioritized hardwearing items that are made of quality materials, thoughtfully designed, and simple to clean. We wanted to include an array of styles to cater to different cutting needs, hand sizes, and preferences.
For those who want to cut pizza like many of the shops in Italy do, the Dreamfarm Scizza Scissors should work nicely. They have a handy safety lock built into the handle and won't become dull when used over pizza stones since the blades never make contact. The nylon base is helpful for serving, but be careful with heavier slices, especially if they're piping hot.
Chefs who prefer rocker knives for their versatility will appreciate the Checkered Chef Rocker and the BruArcher Premium Gourmet, while the Kitchy Clean is a clever device that puts the handle and wheel in the same place, which is helpful for those with certain wrist issues. It also has a small footprint for easy storage.
All of our wheeled selections bring great attributes to the table, but we felt the Rosle Round deserved the top spot for its excellent design, elegant look, hardwearing stainless steel construction, and impressive lifetime warranty.
As a side note, remember that all of these selections sport very sharp blades that will cut you if used and stored improperly, which is especially important to bear in mind when purchasing for a household with children. If there will be kids around, it's best to choose a model that comes with safety guards and locks.

Williams Sonoma Wood-Handled Rocker The Wood-Handled Rocker from Williams Sonoma delivers an impressive performance thanks to a gently curved, ultra-sharp stainless steel blade with a small helper handle that promotes a natural, two-handed rocking motion to quickly and easily slice through crisp crusts. It must be hand washed and dried thoroughly to preserve the integrity of its walnut wood handle. williamssonoma.com
Elsa Peretti Padova Named for the Italian city in which it is crafted, the Padova cutter is constructed from sterling silver that's been responsibly culled from known mines and sources. This elegant design comes from Elsa Peretti, a renowned Italian jewelry designer whose pieces for Tiffany & Co. have been showcased in multiple museums. tiffany.com
