Kuhn Rikon Swiss Peeler

Yes, the Swiss Metal Peeler features an ambidextrous design, meaning the blade and handle shape are optimized for both left- and right-handed users.

No, this peeler is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the sharpness of the stainless steel blade and prevent potential damage, we recommend hand washing and drying it immediately after use.

There is a small, pointed loop integrated into the side of the peeler head. You simply use this loop to dig out potato eyes or blemishes on fruits and vegetables before or after peeling.

While the handle is made of smooth stainless steel, the ergonomic shape is designed to provide a secure grip. However, if you are working with particularly slippery produce, it is always best to ensure your hands are dry before starting.

This peeler features a straight blade, which is best suited for firm produce like potatoes, carrots, and apples. While it can handle softer fruits, it may not be as effective as a serrated-blade peeler for delicate skins like tomatoes or peaches.
