Question
Is an egg slicer required to be immersed with a blessing?
Answer
Immersion is required, and if it is brought to the table, it is indeed considered a table utensil. If it is not brought to the table, it is not considered a table utensil and is immersed without a blessing. Although the knife of a food processor is immersed with a blessing, even though it is not brought to the table, it is indeed involved in food preparation and is considered a table utensil even when not brought to the table. In contrast, this tool, without which the food is prepared, is not considered a table utensil unless it is brought to the table.
