Know before you buy
Yes, the ergonomic design is symmetrical, making these peelers comfortable and effective for both left- and right-handed cooks.
Absolutely. The razor-sharp carbon steel blades are designed to glide through both soft fruits and hard, fibrous vegetables with minimal effort.
While they are technically dishwasher safe, we recommend hand-washing them. This helps prevent the carbon steel blades from dulling or rusting over time, ensuring they stay sharp for years.
That is an integrated potato eye remover. It allows you to quickly scoop out blemishes or eyes from potatoes without needing a separate paring knife.
Carbon steel is generally sharper and holds an edge longer than standard stainless steel. Because of this, they provide a smoother peeling experience, though they require a quick dry after washing to prevent oxidation.
