Kuhn Rikon Original Swiss Peeler, dirt cheap and very good quality. Do not pay any more than $4 per one. Just search the net. I love them, I have a bunch usually all kids like to help.
You're Welcome!
They used to cover my mom's home...she still didn't get anything done!

It can peel an uncooked peach as if the angels had done it. Stays sharp forever.

That uncooked peach sounds under ripe to me. The skin on a ripe peach should pull off, even uncooked.
A lot of simple kitchen tools sold today need extra space, drawers to store them. Oxo, for example, their smallest kitchen tools have large screwdriver type handles. Maybe I'm exaggerating.
I just received the set of three Swissmar peelers. I did NOT like the OXO. So far, so good, Very sharp. A minimum of clogging. Similar to the Kuhn Rikon, without the reports of rusting, but more expensive. Serrated, Scalpel, and Julienne blades. Sold as a set of two, also, without the Julienne.
I'm struggling to find a vegetable peeler that's worth a darn for potatoes. I've used the Wolfgang Puck one and it works great on carrots and cucs. Still fails to skin the tubers. Any ideas of what's great?
P.S. It's hard to find a good one of these, but they can be a real charm. Any brand name recommendations?:
This "Faberware" peeler is the best one I've ever used. It's comfortable to grip and peels like greased lightening!

OXO has large handles, specifically for those of us with arthritic hands. That's why they are called Good Grips. I have large pens and pencils too, because I can't grip anything smaller.
I'm also a fan of my OXO peeler. Swivel Peeler
My knuckle peeler would win hands down in a potato peeling contest. I won such a contest with my bro one Thanksgiving.
