Kuhn Rikon Swiss Peeler

No, these peelers are not dishwasher safe. To maintain the sharpness of the carbon steel blades and prevent rusting, you should hand wash them and dry them thoroughly immediately after use.

The swivel blade is designed to cut in both directions, which allows you to peel efficiently whether you are pulling the peeler toward you or pushing it away. This design significantly speeds up prep time for tasks like peeling large batches of potatoes or carrots.

Carbon steel is known for its superior sharpness, but it is more prone to oxidation than stainless steel. To keep them in top condition, avoid leaving them wet and ensure they are completely dry before storing them.

Yes, the peelers feature an ergonomic, lightweight design that is easy to hold. Because the blades are exceptionally sharp, they require very little pressure to glide through tough vegetable skins, making them a great choice for those who prefer a tool that does the work for them.

The small, loop-like protrusion on the side of the peeler head is designed to easily scoop out potato eyes or blemishes on fruits and vegetables. It saves you from having to switch tools or use a paring knife during your prep work.
