Tomato Slicer Or Photo Holder

We don't always have to use things as they were originally intended, now do we?
I found this tomato slicer at a yard sale recently for 50 cents. At the time I bought it I had no idea what it was other than it was a vintage kitchen tool, had a cool red wooden handle and was 50 cents. Did I mention it was 50 cents?
After I got it home, I decided to repurpose it into a photo holder. Or in this case a postcard holder.
Tomato slicer one moment. Photo holder the next.
This is the before photo.


Let's be honest. I didn't really do anything to it except slide a postcard into it. This isn't rocket science here :)
Look at the hack saw looking blades on this thing. Wonder how many fingers were mangled just trying to make a BLT sandwich?
It does cut a mean slice of tomato though.
