Prince Castle’s model 970 Series Bagel Saber™ is
designed to give you a perfectly sliced bagel quick
and easy every time. Place a whole bagel in the
Bagel Saber, and with one forward stroke, you get
two perfectly sliced bagel halves. Stainless steel
construction ensures long, reliable service. The
sturdy frame sits flat on any counter for safe and
stable operation. A built-in table stop ensures the
unit won't budge while in use. Precise, sharp,
replaceable stainless steel blades deliver a clean cut
with every stroke.

Any component which proves to be faulty in material
and/or workmanship will be replaced or repaired (at
the option of Prince Castle, Inc.) without cost to the
customer for parts or labor.
