Frankie Flood's pizza cutter designs
I love these custom pizza cutters designed by Frankie Flood. He has over half a dozen different designs, each with a different theme. This one is called the Gold Knuckle.

These are very attractive, but don't appear to be very good at actually cutting pizza.
Ever since being introduced to them years ago, I have embraced the 2-handed rocker-style pizza knife: far faster and more accurate cuts than a wheel, and easy to sharpen. Mine is italian and wickedly sharp... this one at Amazon looks similar.

Those look a lot more handy for lacerating undesirables who try to stick up your pizza shop than they do for pizza cutting- especially the ones with toothed blades.
Even the sharp ones would get gunked up beyond recognition by the end of day one, and the long-handled ones would have very poor leverage, unless you used two hands, negating the point.
What's next, unusable keyboards made of chocolate?

Poopy-pants naysaying aside, some of the designs are charming (built-in suspension! hehe) and could be a fun wall piece for the dedicated pizzaiolo with a hot rod/Harley bent.

When I open "Cheney's Kitchen", my rendition themed pizzaria, the "gold knuckle" will get plenty of use...

The twin-handled, curved-blade, 18-inch rocker knife is the best by far. I used to work at a pizza shop in a college town after football games (War Eagle!!), and I could cut 4 pizzas a minute, including boxing or plating them, with the trusty old rocker knife.

As a designer (also with many stints as a pizzaria employee), I shiver with dismay at galleries like this. Design masturbation. Form without function. I'm not saying it's not art, but I am saying they're unfit for actual use. Andyes, the designer touts on the splash page that he prides himself in designing "functional objects". So we basically get 10 variations of what a pizza cutter would be if the guys from West Coast Choppers designed them and no one ever had to use them. And I thought the Paris runway featured absurdly useless pretty things...
GOOD DESIGN WORKS.
