Important Care Instructions
Like professional carbon steel knives, this peeler's blade requires proper care. The high-carbon steel is chosen for its superior sharpness but can rust if left wet. To maintain your peeler:
- Always wash and dry it thoroughly with a cloth immediately after use.
- Do not leave it to soak or place it in the dishwasher.
- Store in a dry place.
How to Use
For the best results and safest operation, place your vegetable on a cutting board or stable surface. Hold it firmly with one hand and gently pull the peeler towards your body in a smooth, controlled motion.
