Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler 3-Pack Red/Green/Yellow

Lightweight easy to hold easy to use peels very easily glides right along whatever you’re appealing and does an outstanding job. You don’t have a have to use a lot of strength. The peeler does its job perfectly. They are very sharp, so be careful! It’s comfortable to use and it does its job very well A+!

Wow, I wish I had known about these peelers sooner, they are amazing! They have me thinking of dishes to make that require vegetables to be peeled, because of how easily and quickly I can get the job done. The price point is perfect, and you get three of them to share with others to help you out.

The Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler is my favorite peeler of all time. They are very sharp and retain their edge better than any other peeler I’ve used. Additionally, they’re ambidextrous; my husband and I are both lefties. Part of what makes these peelers so fantastic is the carbon steel blades; however, the blades will rust if not washed and dried promptly. To me, it’s a very small bit of maintenance to keep a fantastic product in top shape. I had my last peeler for 10 years & it was still in perfect condition. Unfortunately, I think I accidentally threw it away with a heap of peelings when super tired. This time I purchased a colorful 3-pack. Highly recommend.

For those who work in the food industry, this one is an essential. Common complaints: Blade rusts, awkward to use, feels cheap. Response: 1.) The blade rusts because the peeler is not made of stainless steel. As someone else has already pointed out, it's carbon steel which requires more care (rinse/wash & wipe try with a kitchen towel right away) to prevent rusting. However, this makes the Kuhn Rikon peelers MUCH sharper. They also keep their edge longer than your normal metal swivel head peeler that most people are used to seeing. 2.) For new users, the kuhn rikon peeler can feel quite awkward because its Y-shape means that it is best for certain things. In the restaurant business, peeling 10gallons of potatoes for mash happens every couple days and this is the peeler to do it. The Y-peeler is best for certain tasks and requires a certain grip and technique. It takes some getting used to but once you've got it down, you'll be going through apples and potatoes like no one's business. 3.) These peelers aren't meant to be kept for years unless of course you only peel a few veggies a year. For the product intended use, these are plenty sturdy, can be thrown around, used, abused and still stay sharper for longer. Many prep cooks go through one of these every couple months just because of the sheer volume of food they prepare. So, with professional wear and tear, you're not going to keep them around forever. The reason why cooking professionals are generally so satisfied with these is that the Kuhn Rikons are the best peelers when considering working efficiency, durability and price. Summary: If you're a home cook who only peels an apple as a snack and a few potatoes for dinner every few days, you might not want to bother with getting used to a different kind of peeler and the slightly higher maintenance. BUT if you're in the food industry, you know that you can't find what the Kuhn Rikon peelers have to offer anywhere else.

I bought this item 3rd time in a few years. One of those 3 times was for a gift. Recently one of the three peelers broke and another one got lost. So I was down to only one. I came back to buy another set. They look practicaly identical, but I found that the new ones are not as good as the older ones were. If the vegetable I peel is not hard (for example asparagus) these new ones will slip and won't peel well. On the harder veggies like carrots and potatoes they work fine, but I still feel a bit of a difference. Overall they do the job and they are still better than many other peelers on the market. And I would still recommend them over other peelers (and I tried A LOT!!!) Their blades are made out of the metal that rusts. They always were like that. That is why they are so sharp and work so well. Because of that specific metal. Because of that do NOT put them in the dishwasher and do not throw them into the sink with your dirty dishes! Because they WILL rust. They are ridiculously easy to clean. Just rinse them after use, dry with papertowel or kitchen towel and put them away. And they will last forever and will not rust. Mine never rusted, but I knew they will if I leave them out in the sink for long enough.

I absolutely love these Kuhn Rikon peelers. I have used them for years and years and I love that they come in a set of 3. Whenever they get dull I just buy new ones because they always arrive sharp and ready to go. They handle well and have a good grip. For people used to the standard peeler with a narrow handle, the grip may take a little getting used to but once you do you probably won’t go back to a standard narrow handled peeler.

Very good items

Muy buen producto, cumple su función perfectamente.

It's a perfectly good and usable peeler. The blade is made of carbon steel and needs a bit more maintenance than stainless steel. Particularly, carbon steel can oxidize (rust) if left in water, and acidic compounds such as citrus juices or tomato sauces can speed up oxidation. However, carbon steel is harder than stainless steel and can stay sharp and functional longer than stainless steel. TL;DR — Maintain this peeler by giving it a good rinse and wipe clean after each use, storing it in a drawer, and it can stay sharp for a long time.

Excelente produto. Dura décadas sem perder o corte.

Great little peelers. They work well. A pleasure to use. I highly recommend. Cheers.
