I don't particularly like this peeler, but I think that's mostly my inexperience with a serrated peeler. While it peeled it with relative ease, it also took a fair amount of pith with the peel and I couldn't keep it from doing that (at least, without experience). I peeled -attempted to zest- a navel orange. I think it's the serration that actually makes it feel less sharp - it catches at whatever you're peeling. This is the 2nd sharpest peeler of the 3 I bought. įirst, I have to say that this is the cheapest of the three peelers I bought by $3. Don't know why I can't get to a link for it, but. The Cutting Edge, Firm Grip, Serrated Peeler (Green) - 4 stars I didn't compare it to my older Oxo, but I'd assume it was sharper. It gave the worst peel out of those reviewed here. I'm nervous about taking the cover on and off, but assume it would become easier with use. It's 2-2/8 inches, and comes with a protective cover. The blade itself is substantially longer than all the others (including the old Oxo). Of the three reviewed here, it has the longest handle by about an inch. The handle is about 1/2 inch longer, and it's shaped to give it a more comfortable grip. It comes with a plastic cover with a small tab to protect yourself from getting cut while it's in your drawer. the Messermeister's peel is NOT serrated, and is smooth as butter because it's SO sharp! So, in my book, that wins! (even with my daily painful arthritis) Certainly the barrel itself is thinner than the Firm Grip. Yes, it's silicone, but it doesn't seem quite as "grip-y" or the silicone is thinner. The grip isn't quite as comfortable as the Firm Grip. Because of the shape up top (flares out), I'd still like at least another half inch. I was EASILY able to peel just the zest (!) from a navel orange!!! No pith whatsoever!!ĭunno what else there is to say about it that could beat that! :D The handle is about a half inch longer than the Firm Grip. This is my favorite peeler out of my four (including my old dull Oxo).
