Pro-Peeler

217 - Kiwi Brand pro peeler.

The Kiwi Brand Pro Peeler has a high carbon content Japanese stainless steel (SUS420J2) blade and is specially designed so that it can cut in both directions.

This peeler excels when peeling big items, as the blade is wider than typical peelers. It is suitable for left and right handed users. The handle is made from lightweight high grade polypropylene plastic which is both durable and ergonomic.

This can easily peel all types of fruit and vegetables like papaya, mango, pumpkin, carrot, cucumber etc. with both smooth or rough skins. Lay the fruit or vegetable down then lay the peeler blade gently on the skin and either pull or push the blade to start peeling.

The peeler can also be used for slicing fruit or vegetables in to thin strips.

Keep the blade away from strong acids or alkalis such as fish sauce or vinegar.
Do not use wire wool to clean as it may damage the blade. Wash with a soft sponge and dry immediately.

Avoid putting wooden handled knives in a dishwasher as the high temperature and extended period in water will shrink and dry the wood and will ultimately ruin the knife.

This knife is made with a Japanese high carbon martensitic stainless steel alloy(SUS420J2) which has the benefit of being harder and therefore sharper than many other stainless steels but the trade-off is that they are more prone to staining.

If your knife has a wooden handle, it is recommended to oil the handle occasionally with a food grade oil. The choice of oil is a personal preference however groundnut and rapeseed oil appear to be popular but avoid olive oil as this can go rancid quite quickly. This will help maintain the wood and keep your knife looking like new. Be very careful while doing this to avoid cutting yourself.

Store knives in a dedicated storage solution such as a wooden box or wall hanger, see our knife storage options .
