A cutter for sectioning cheese in the form of a wheel. The cutter includes an apparatus for a cheese wheel to be divided by a set of horizontal or inclined staggered blades into smaller wheels, the cheese then being placed onto a platform. Another set of blades with a different orientation such as vertical then pass through the smaller wheels. The second set of blades may include one cylindrical blade removing an outer periphery and providing a uniform outer diameter and may include a plurality of linear, diametral blades sectioning each smaller wheel into portions or wedges. A second apparatus moves the portions or wedges to be packaged from the platform, and then retracts so the second set of blades and platform may return to a position for sectioning or portioning a second cheese wheel.
