## Description

I am a true original and my name is "Famos" Famos as in, superb'. I was already being manufactured in a similar form in the 1950's, and since then I have sold in my hundreds of thousands. My advantage: I lie particularly well in the hand, and gently follow the contours of the fruit or vegetables to be peeled with my pendulum blade, without requiring the application of substantial pressure. I can easily remove areas of damage on potatoes with my welded blade. This Vegetable Peeler is great for prepping all sorts of fresh produce, it's especially handy for vegetables like carrots, cucumbers & more! The swivel action blade conforms to contours of food to ensure consistently precise peeling. Call this peeler a vegetable peeler, potato peeler, carrot peeler, apple peeler, citrus peeler, orange peeler, tomato peeler or fruit peeler, the point is this tool gets the job done!

Review: Great peelers - Fabulous peeler. I bought one in Europe many years ago and found them much better than the ones in America. I just purchased 2 of these and will probably get more for bridal shower gifts when the need arises.
Review: Bartender's DREAM! Rolls Royce of peelers! - Don't let the minimalist design fool you, this is a professional quality tool. I'm a home bar enthusiast and have tried many peeling tools/knives. This one slays them all. Most peelers jam or cut too deep. I'm able to get perfect citrus peels every time with the Westmark, as long as I want them, and with no bitter pith! The sharp blade tackles anything... I've even peeled a butternut squash. I love the sturdy all metal construction, there's no added bulk and its a cinch to clean! TIP: if you want wide, consistent, citrus peels, use firm pressure and a left-right sawing motion as you peel towards you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well but it has a different technique.
*by J***M on June 26, 2025*

Others commented (complained) that this is a left handed peeler. It isn't. It is intended to be used pulling toward you, pulling your thumb and fingers together, fingers on the peeler, thumb on the veggie. You use your thumb to leverage the peeler. So, if you're used to a peeler that you push away, that's not how this is designed to be used. With that said, it isn't difficult to pop the blade assembly out and reverse it, which I did (keep the plastic guard on the blade while you do that.) With it set up to peel away from you it works really well for long vegetables like carrots. Set up that way it's not very good for peeling something like an apple. I do share the comments about rusting. It does seem to have a propensity to rust but that isn't show stopper for me. (The absolute best peeler we have is an ancient Ecko that has a carbon steel blade and has a bit of rust. But it's still the best after 40 years of use.) The blade on this peeler is very sharp and replaceable (no idea where to find one, tho'.) I'm actually ordering a second one of these to keep as designed - pull to peel set up. If you peel a lot of veggies like cucumbers or carrots this peeler will work great if you reverse the blade.
