I love that cheese. I wanted to see his reaction after eating it.

The costs of a full wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano (if you're getting a good deal) is around 900 dollars. If you buy the same stuff at a high end shop that same wheel can go for as much as 2,500 bucks.

That seems like a lot of extra effort and time. Why not use a band saw of some kind? Just tradition or some other reason? Maybe the heat from the friction would damage the cheese?
