The Ultimate Peeler Crafted by a Renowned Culinary Toolmaker

Introducing the original peeler by Iidaya, a venerable establishment that has been operating since 1912 in Tokyo's Kappabashi, known as the sanctuary of Japanese culinary tools. Iidaya, renowned for offering over a hundred types of peelers, presents the ultimate peeler with unmatched sharpness. The moment our store manager tried it, the decision to stock it was instantaneous, given its exceptional ease of use. While this peeler falls into the higher price category, we confidently recommend it for its unparalleled quality.

Diagonal Design for Left-Handed Use

In its development, blade angles were meticulously adjusted degree by degree to arrive at this unique shape. This design, prioritizing ease of use and safety, has won Japan’s most prestigious Good Design Award. For left-handed individuals, we recommend holding the food with your right hand and peeling towards the left for an optimal experience.

Persistent Sharpness with Exquisite Material

Designed to peel effortlessly even for those with reduced grip strength — "peelable with just the pinky" — this peeler's sharpness aims for utmost ease (upon first use, our manager had to touch the peel to believe such lightness could effectively peel). The blade is made of 440A stainless steel, a material typically reserved for professional and specialty tools due to its complex processing requirements. This choice reflects Iidaya's commitment to quality and is a testament to the manufacturing prowess of SUNCRAFT, located in Seki, a city famed for its katana craftsmanship.

Replaceable Blades Available

A delightful feature of this peeler is its rare offering of replaceable blades, allowing for prolonged use far beyond the typical lifespan of peelers. Dubbed the "Ever-Peeler," this design enables long-term utilization by simply changing the blades as needed.

Tips for Preserving Sharpness

To maintain its sharpness, important storage tips include hanging it on a hook or keeping it in a box separately to avoid contact with other items. The primary cause of dullness is the blade hitting dishes during washing or clashing with other tools in a drawer. Preventing such contact ensures the longest-lasting, satisfying sharpness.
