Veg Peeler

coffee drinker — Tue, 30 Nov 2021 04:24:33 GMT

Can anyone recommend one. I had a Kyocera ceramic peeler that I really liked. When it broke, I replaced it with the same. It just wasn't the same. Recommendations, please.

*Found it! Go to website listed below, click on Kitchen, then go underTools &Gadgets and click on Peelers, Graters & Slicers. Comes in the set for only $15.99

Yes, yes, yes! I found this one at a restaurant supply store and could not believe how well it worked. You wouldn't think there could be such a difference, but this one glides easily with little or no pressure, so very little waste.
My daughter used it when she was here and immediately asked, Where did you get this?!? Both of us have given them as gifts that were greatly appreciated. I keep extra ones in my drawer. Had it for years and it still works as good as the day I got it.
The paring knife is also awesome, love it.

TBrand is Victorinox (Swiss Army) Sorry for bad picture!

I have had several. The traditional one, by far outlasted everything!

I've had an OXO swivel peeler for years now and it still works as well as when I first bought it. I especially like that it has a guard over the blade to protect your fingers.

It's difficult to say whether any brand would be the same now but, if you bought it from somewhere like Kohl's, BB&B or Walmart, if it didn't work for you, it could be returned.

For any who did not read my previous (most current addition) I did find the peeler I was talking about.

Go to website listed below(www.swissknifeshop. com), click on Kitchen, then go underTools &Gadgets and click on Peelers, Graters & Slicers. Comes in the set for only $15.99

Sorry, but am glad they are still making them!

@coffee drinker - I love the peelers made by Kuhn Rikon—whether you're a fan of the swivel or Y design, the quality and performance is great. You can get them here at QVC, on the Kuhn Rikon website, from Amazon, or at a wide variety of kitchen stores and online retailers. Hope you find something a-peeling to you with all the suggestions in this thread...

I love my Rada vegetable peeler. I have two of them. I purchased them at a Myrtle Beach flea market, but I do see them available on Amazon. Best peeler I ever used. Under $11. In my 1-2 top kitchen purchases ever. Rada is stainless steel. I see It is also an Amazon’s choice product. I bought one, then bought another the next year.

For the arthritis I have to use the OXO. Had for years it's still a peeling. 🤣🤣

@coffee drinker A new peeler is always going to feel awkward at first until you break it in. It gradually becomes honed to your hand and pressure. I have no idea how it does it, but it does. Like @ECBG , I use the cheapo peeler and can go through a bag of russet potatoes in no time. I also have arthritis in my hands, but my peeler goes easy on me.

Titan peelers are the best.

I own four of them. I have one in each rv and two at home. I would never be without them.

My oldest one is at least 10 years old. I use them every day and they do not get dull, bend or break and they work fast and are comfortable to use.

Just last week, we peeled four pumpkins and it was a breeze. Before Titan, I was replacing peelers a few times a year. They get a real work out at my house.

Love my OXO peeler...have had it for years and peels everything with ease. Stays sharp.

@HerRoyaLioness Is this peeler serrated?

@ECBG I have that one too. It's my go to.

Works so much better than all the others I have purchased.

I have one like this from Pampered Chef that I've been using for at least 20 years. It still works just fine.

@Sooner Yes, which normally I didn't think I would like - I actually bought the set for the paring knife, but when I tried the peeler, it was so smooth you can't even tell it's serrated.

@coffee drinker

The peeler that ECBG posted is the one that I have always used. They are made in Sweden and sold by

Vermont Country Store. I bought two more just this past year and I think that they are just under $15.00.

I have the Victoronix peeler. It works a lot better than the my mom gave me when I got married years ago. I still have it but use the Victoronix. Their knives work as well. We have a couple sizes Granton edge slicing knives, steak, boning, paring, tomato, chef etc. Amazon & Wal-Mart both carry Victoronix.

@Nightowlz - don't you love how well they work?!? Can't believe how impressed I was over these plastic handled, reasonably priced utensils! I know Victorinox has an upper level line also, but I just love the peeler and paring knife set. I always caution people to make sure they're very careful with these, but some will inevitably come back and say - wow, those are really sharp, I cut myself!

I just ordered 2 more sets from the company, but good to know you can get them on Amazon or Walmart.

@HerRoyaLioness

I sent my sister a tomato knife, paring knife, peeler, slicing knife. I also sent her a couple sizes of frying pans.

She says the peeler & knives are sharp. She did cut herself. I had to send her a few of those plastic knife guards to cover them with.

We bought most of what we have from a restaurant supply store that's no longer open so have to order online now.
