How do I easily make slices of cheese?

Blocks of cheese are always way cheaper than sliced cheese.
However, pic related sucks ass, is too much hassle and doesn't consistently work. Especially if the cheese is even a little bit soft, it just sticks to the cheese and breaks a chunk off.

How retarded do you have to be to not be able to cut a slice of cheese off a block? And to be on /ck/ no less. Maybe if they made you cut a piece of cheese before you idiots were able to confirm your Double Big Mac orders on DoorDash you'd be experts at it.

you do realize it takes next to no effort to make a guide. like just lay down a box on either side of the block. Schooch the block out as far as you want, then keep the blade against the boxes. this isn't rocket science.

congrats, you're a little bitch. Just buy the presliced. Like fuck, you realize everything in life is a series of tradeoffs, right? There's going to be annoyances to going one way or the other. One way may be cheaper in the long run from a pure cash basis, but may end up costing you far more depending on how you value your time. If you go the faster route, you'll probably have to front more money and lose a bit of quality. Or you could buy a deli slicer OR think for a little bit about ways to make soft things harder like putting it in the freezer for a bit before you cut (again, we're eating into time) or use something mechanical like the papers. Or just use a wire cutter and replace them because holy fucking shit, it takes almost a minute if you're a complete retard. Oh noooooo! Get the fuck over yourself.

Show a cut of cheese 1/8" thick right now with exact thickness across the entire block, made with a knife. You're on an image board, do it right now. Not in 15 minutes, not never, right fucking now.

I suggested the professional way to cut cheese and all sorts of meat at an attainable price. Deli slicers are how you cut cheese properly.

THIS

These things, while they do clutter the kitchen, are fucking AMAZING when you want to do your own deli shit in the kitchen. Sliced ham, turkey, brisket, cheese, AND bread. That's right, you can slice perfect uniform bread slices on this fucker. Tired of store bought bread but don't want to slice home made loafs for sandwiches? This fucker comes to the rescue.

I primarily got mine so I could smoke ham and slice it for my use. I was tired of the shitty fake smoked ham they all carry. Dial it down to a couple of mm to get shavings, get more like 5-7mm for slices.

Bit of a job to clean, but you can just wipe em down with sanitized wipes and the blade screws off and can be dish washed.
