Like, I get comments from people telling me it's weird I always try to peel potatoes like I am trying to make the worlds longest 1-piece potato peel. To me it feels way for efficient and fun to continu down a potato in 1 peel, while circling around it, instead of randomly scraping a hundred different pieces of peel off and having to reintroduce the cutter knife to the potato for every piece.

I want to know more about the peeler in the photo. I've never seen anything like that.

German Amazon has it. It is not particularly special o'er 'ere.

In terms of ergonomics, I much prefer this one, though.

I also have the same WMF peeler. It's really nice.

Listen to me, you will not use that old wiry thing anymore once you have an oxo peeler. They have a rubberized grip that’s actually hand-sized and I’ve been loving potato peeling with it.

Oxo makes some good stuff. I offer see their products on America's Test Kitchen at the very least in the running and as winners a decent amount of the time

It's called "Sparschäler".
