(More customer reviews)Regarding the Swissmar Serrated Stainless Steel Peeler, this one is really a very special peeler, that I discovered by accident when I borrowed it from a family member. I have 4 vegetable peelers that look the same as this one, from a distance. Here is what this peeler does, that no other peeler will do the same: it peels the Kabocha squash! The kabocha squash is basically a Japanese pumpkin which is popular in Southern California around October & November each year. Check it out on-line to see pictures. It ain't a pretty squash; spotty, mottled, and uneven dark olive green peel which looks like the coral reef, but it is smooth and deep beautiful orange on the inside--and get this: when steamed, it can have the consistency of potatoes-- it's a favorite in my family. So back to the peeler, this particular peeler has a serrated knife, and its little teeth grasp onto the tough skin -- a task which all other standard peelers will not do. Just be very careful, because it is very sharp. Before I had this peeler, it took me about 1 hour to peel this pumpkin with a sharp knife, and that was dangerous business too. This peeler cut my job down to 2 minutes of work. Look, I really don't think that this peeler was designed to peel pumpkins, and I am probably testing its limits until it might break one day. Actually, it may very well be intended as a garnishing tool, but I am a practical man, and garnishing is not an everyday task for me.
But this peeler is one fine tool that will create ruffled slices for your garnishing pleasure, as well as easily peel all the vegetables, not just the ones with the tougher skin. Check out the kabocha squash at the market -- its skin is hard like a rock, but if you peel this green pumpkin, cut it up into big cubes, and put spices on it, and simply steam it till just right, you will discover a tasty vegetable (actally technically a fruit) that is an amazing side dish. And the Swissmar Serrated Peeler will allow you to attempt to peel it instead of leaving the skin on during the cooking process. The peeler knife is made of stainless steel, so what else can one ask for? Good luck, be very careful, and see if you are crazy enough to risk breaking a serrated peeler in order to cook some amazing pumpkin for dinner. I am crazy enough to do it, that is for sure. Check it out!

This isn't just another peeler. Proprietary technology from Switzerland has given our Swiss Classic peelers a few new edges. The stainless steel blade is scalpel sharp-which means less effort to peel and a thinner peel with every stroke. The serrated blade peeler is perfect for more delicate fruits and vegetables such as kiwis, mangoes and tomatoes. A side cutter on each peeler removes eyes and blemishes from produce or can cut grooves in fruits and vegetables. Suitable for left and right handed use, dishwasher safe, Made in Switzerland.
