Kuhn RikonSwiss Metal Peeler 4”, Stainless Steel

Fabulous tool! Definitely a great value for my money. The speed I can peel my fruits and vegetables is great, easy to clean, the size is good and is thick and sturdy. Fun for me to use on such a boring task.

I LOVE this peeler!! So much so that I have two! It's sharp, works well, and has lasted over 10 years. In that time, it hasn't dulled or rusted. I bought another one just for ease that two people can peel potatoes at the same time. When I go to someone elses' house and use their peeler I'm always frustrated because I'm so used to how great mine is and theirs always SUCK! Fantastic peeler!

Pros:The blade is very sharp with a month long usage so far.Seems to be stainless steel and rust proof.Cons:Too pricey.The photo makes it look like the handle is thick and solid. It is not. The bottom side is stamped (dust pan structure) and uncomfortable to hold due to its rough edges. It’s also too lightweight.

If ease of peeling is what you are looking for this is the tool for you. Although the material is thin and not exactly pretty this thing works great! It's the best peeler I've ever owned. I bought it to peel butternut squash and I had them all done in record time. Just be careful... as quick as it peels vegetable it will also peel the skin of the end of your thumb if you are careless. Ask me how I know! I didn't give it 5 stars due to the thin material of the handle but it didn't bother me when I was working with it.

The good: blade is super sharp and makes quick work of potato skins.The bad: handle is very thin and hard to hold. This tool was designed by a tool for sure- someone who clearly doesn't work in the kitchen. I have big hands and found it difficult to hold this peeler. I had to balance it using my index, middle finger and thumb in order to grasp it good enough to skin the potato. Also the edges of the non rounded side are sharp- wth! Why couldn't Kuhn Rikon just curve both sides and still keep it hollow? Idiots! My blade is still intact and super sharp.I'll be looking for a replacement soon- something that I can grasp firmly and still pull back like the one by Rosle.

Love that it is stainless steel and works like a dream!

I do like this product, and the price I paid was good. It peels very well, and my spouse really likes it. She'd probably rate it an extra star. The reason I only give it three is because it hurts my hand to use because of the handle. The handle looks like a stamped piece of metal with edges that are rounded on one side and sharp on the other which is the 'hollow' side. At this price point, asking for a solid handle of the same size is probably out, but that's what it would take for me to enjoy using this. Actually, I won't use it because it's so uncomfortable in my hands (smallish male hands) even as it feels very comfortable to my spouse's smaller hands. Should you buy it? In my view, it's worth a shot. It's very sharp, but it may totally not work for you, so be forewarned.

I was always frustrated with my vegetable peelers, so I started buying better and better ones. I probably have a dozen now. Most are just “OK”, and there are a couple of good ones. However, this peeler is the one that I seek out most often. The design isn’t that unusual but the quality is. Get one!
