Avanti Smooth Skin Y Peeler with Japanese Blades is a general-purpose versatile peeler that makes light work of peeling potatoes, carrots, cucumbers, turnips, parsnips and many other firm fruits and vegetables. It features a unique serrated blade that will not slip on smooth skins and a comfortable, non-slip ergonomic handle. Swivel-action gives a great range of motion in either direction to peel paper-thin layers without damaging the soft inside flesh.
