Just got my ABC Distributing catalog in the mail an there is a " Grip-ex Melon/Pineapple Cutter" in it for $12.95. It resembles ours but I am so glad ours is not like theirs. All theirs is, is an oversized apple wedger. It shows them cutting a pineapple and a cantaloupe. It leaves the rind on, there is not outside ring. Ours is SOOO much better. They do have a website if someone wants to look it up and post a link. abc distributing ® - Online Catalog Gift Collection
