Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler, Orange

Very sharp and easy to handle. But pay attention to the note: this is not a stainless steel blade, it's carbon steel, which will rust if not washed and dried by hand. So not dishwasher safe. This item was ordered as a "add this item to tomorrows delivery" but was NOT in that order, so Amazon provided a replacement. A week later, the original has never shown up, only the replacement. I will never do an add-on item again.

Really sharp and does the job with few swipes. Kuhn Rikon is always good quality.

This peeler works great. I already had a cheap version I got free from BJ's that looks similar, so I was hesitant to buy, but it was recommended by ATK, so I went ahead and I am glad. This thing performs admirably. I made peeling several pounds of potatoes really easy, something the cheap one does not do. I have only peeled potatoes and carrots thus far, but I will no longer be too lazy to peel veggies for recipes as I used to, as using the cheap knock off or a paring knife could be tedious. In short, it works great and makes peeling a breeze. On a side note, do not put in the dishwasher. I did by accident, and after running it and cleaning it out the next day, I noticed the metal blade had rusted. Luckily, it was easy to clean off and is back to work. It is easy enough to clean without putting it in the dishwasher, so not really an issue. The blade is metal and the handle is plastic- and yet it works to perfection. It is a cheap tool and great time saver, so I definitely recommend.

Worked really well. However, I washed and dried by hand and it rusted after I used the first time. Did the same thing the 2nd time. Not using any more. Gave a 3 because it does cut really well, but cleaning this device is not worth it.

Love these speed peelers, though I just realized I need to get more because this previous one got rusty pretty quick. That's on me for not taking better care of it. Good thing they are inexpensive.

That best peeler I ever used., Easy to use. Peels first time

Light weight, sharp, does an amazing job.

I wanted to love the KUHN RIKON Swiss Peeler after reading so many great reviews, but unfortunately, it didn’t live up to the expectations or the hype. While the blade is sharp at first, it isn't extra special and seems to dull pretty quickly after a few uses. The lightweight design is nice, but it almost feels too flimsy, especially when working with tougher vegetables. Also, the handle isn’t very ergonomic—after a bit of peeling, it made my hand cramp. What surprised me, though, was how quickly it rusted. I always hand-washed and dried it right away, but within a couple of weeks, I noticed rust spots forming on the blade. For a peeler that gets such glowing reviews, that was a major letdown. It’s not terrible, but for the price and the reputation, I expected something more durable and comfortable. Strangely enough, it has since mysteriously vanished from my kitchen—possibly spirited away by someone who believed in second chances… or by my trash can. Either way, the search for the perfect peeler continues. Sharpness: 👍👍 Comfort: 👍 Color: 👍👍👍 Peeling ability: 👍👍

Es cómodo sostenerlo y se desliza suavemente cortando la piel de frutas y verduras. Un poco caro para mi gusto, pero me atrajo lo del acero suizo, espero que dure mucho tiempo afilado, para justificar el gasto.

I purchased 3 potato peelers in the hope that I would like one of them. I picked up the Kuhn Rikon, Chef'n PalmPeeler and OXO Good Grips Pro Swivel Peeler. The Kuhn Rikon is perfect, feels comfortable and peels great. OXO is my second favourite, it's sturdy but feels a little awkward to handle. The PalmPeeler, I can see the appeal but I don't think I have the peeling dexterity for it.

These are brilliant. They cut the thinnest peel I have ever managed and feel substantial, built to last. I previously owned some nearly the same from Lak*land which I thought I loved best, but their lighter handles always snap apart eventually, whereas these are made more heavily. The blade is super sharp, yesterday I used them for peeling peppers, which I used to laboriously flame burn, in the past, to relieve them of the bitter skin. The roasted peppers were delicious, and prepared in moments. It must be good to peel extra finely as the nutrients in fruit and veg are largely below the skin anyway. I am really happy to have found these and reading the positive reviews gave me confidence.

Find peeling potatoes difficult since arthritis in fngers got worse. This peeler is brilliant, peeling now so easy, blade very sharp, and gives thin peel so no waste. Have had the same design before but not very good, this brand proves you need to choose well.

I had this old-school peeler that I figured was just well past it's prime and so I looked to see what I could replace it with. I came across this almost out of disbelief and I laughed at the price of it. I ordered it on a larf and found it to be the tiniest peeler ever. But when I used it, it was flawless and quite good. I wasn't looking for anything fancy and works great, which is where it counts. Such good value for such a simple tool. I had seen how many reviews this brand had gotten. So I'm glad I went with it. Dont be worried that it might be a toy and break. Mine still going strong and it's held up great.
