Kyocera Vegetable Peeler

Ceramic blades are significantly harder than steel, meaning they hold their sharpness much longer and won't rust. Because the material is chemically inert, it won't brown your produce or leave a metallic aftertaste, making it ideal for delicate fruits and vegetables.

No, this peeler is not dishwasher safe. To maintain the integrity of the ceramic blade and the resin handle, we recommend hand washing it with warm water and mild soap, then drying it immediately.

Yes, despite the delicate nature of ceramic, this blade is robust enough to handle firm root vegetables. However, avoid using it on frozen foods or hard pits, as ceramic can be brittle if subjected to extreme force or impact.

The Y-peeler shape is generally more ergonomic for repetitive tasks, allowing you to use a natural wrist motion rather than a twisting one. Combined with the lightweight resin handle, this design reduces hand fatigue during larger prep jobs.

Ceramic blades are designed to stay sharp for years without maintenance. While they don't require traditional honing, they are difficult to sharpen at home once they eventually dull; however, with proper care, the edge retention is exceptional.
