content: I purchased this peeler because my flimsy Victorionox $3 peeler's blade snapped right off. I received recommendation of this peeler being "the best peeler invented" by a fellow chef. I was not disappointed at all, the blade is sharp, the handle is comfortable and it flies through potatoes and carrots. I have even been told it lays waste to coconuts. If you're looking for a reasonably priced peeler, look no further.
