Original Swiss Peeler 3-Pack Red/Green/Yellow

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.

The absolute go-to peeler for foodies. I don’t get how some find it difficult to use. Ts a question of how to manipulate it. Try it , you’ll love it. Don’t put it dishwasher

Very sharp. Would buy again.

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.

Super easy to use, sharp, and comfortable. Joshua Weismann said they were the best; I didn’t believe him but he was correct. Except: they rust. Don’t let them sit dirty. Don’t put them in the dishwasher. Rinse, dry, wipe with mineral oil (qtip), put away.

There is no better peeler than this brand, loved by chefs everywhere for the reason it’s undeniably superior year after year. It’s not stainless steel which made me question it the first time I bought it. After trying several different stainless brands I couldn’t wait to relegate those to the back of the drawer. KUHN Rikon you won’t be sorry try getting just one first, you’ll understand why having the 3 pack is a great gift giver to your favorite cooks.

I purchased this product because it was recommended by America's Test Kitchen. BIG MISTAKE. It awful. Blade is not sharp enough so it glides awkwardly. The blade RUSTS after the first wash! It's hard to see because the blade is black. But, after I washed it and I dried it with paper towel. About a day passed and I saw the small rust spots develop on the blade. If you own this product, please carefully examine the blade because the rust is difficult to see and starts with very small dots. This product is too delicate. I really don't want to baby any product. Especially a cheap set of peelers. The problem is: the blade can be difficult to dry properly and even a little bit of moisture will cause rust meaning that the material is rust prone. Very silly for a product that must be exposed to water. If you want a fantastic peeler get the OXO, I have several and nothing has gone wrong.

Great peeler. In my opinion the best out there.

Muy buen producto, cumple su función perfectamente.

really awesome peelers they have super high quality blades that cut really well and consistent everytime

This is a really simple product, but it is absolutely the best I have ever had. sharp to the point you take extra care not to cut yourself. Other than that it is always helpful to have more than one if you are cooking for several people like in Christmas or if you have help in your kitchen often. I recommend this purchase 100%.

I can never do without these peelers. They are super sharp and durable. They do rust if left to dry so I'd recommend to dry them after washing.

De muy buena calidad
