Back in yesteryear, people grew a lot of their own herbs. That's just the way it was. Anything that you could make or grow was done that way. Money was scarce. Some herbs needed to be mashed, sliced, and/or crushed to be in a useful form for seasoning and cooking. That's where the device in the photo came into play. It is a herb slicer and was found in most country kitchens. You won't find this item in todays kitchen. Our herbs come in bottles, zip lock bags, plastic containers, and you name it.
