I found a really nice old Berkel slicer today on Kijiji (craigslist equivelant in Canada).Saw the ad about five minutes after it had been posted and $250 and a half hour later it was in the back of my Ranger.Weighs a crap ton and slices like a dream.One of the pics shows some slices of salt cured pork loin I have hanging in the garage.I have two bellies in pops brine now and cant wait to slice em up in about another week or so.
