A neat, convenient cake cutter 

projects.

Context.

Cake can be messy, unless you have a good knife, the patience to clean the knife after every stroke, a spatula specifically to move the slice, and the balance of a ninja so the slice doesn't flop over.

The white dial holds blades 1, 3, 5 ,7 while the black dial holds blades 2, 4, 6, and 8.

When the dials are pushed in clockwise and anticlockwise directions, they grip alternate slices, and these 4 slices can now be moved to a new plate.
