'the kitchen' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'battered relics' is the wordplay.
'battered' indicates anagramming the letters.
'relics' with letters rearranged gives 'SLICER'.

'found in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for slicer that I've seen before include "Machine for cutting, eg, ham" , "Cutting implement" , "Kitchen utensil" , "One making ball curve" , "Device for, eg, cutting eggs" .)
