Y peeler WMF Microplane 48095 — stainless steel blade, for vegetables, black handle

The Y peeler WMF Microplane 48095 combines a Y-shaped handle with an extra-large stainless steel blade designed for precise vegetable peeling. The wider and longer blade cuts thin, uniform peels from fruits and vegetables while preserving flavor and aroma. The tool features an ergonomic black handle and a corrosion-resistant blade intended for everyday kitchen use in both home and professional settings.

Advantages

The stainless steel blade is ultra-sharp and produced with Microplane® cutting technology to deliver clean, non-tearing cuts that preserve texture and taste. The larger blade area covers more surface per pass, reducing peeling time for wider or longer produce. The black ergonomic handle provides a comfortable grip for extended use, and the construction is suitable for both right- and left-handed users. Corrosion resistance ensures reliable performance over repeated kitchen tasks.

Suitable for

• Peeling root vegetables such as potatoes and sweet potatoes
• Preparing garnishes and thin peels from citrus fruits and melons
• Removing skins from larger or thicker-skinned produce like pumpkin and papaya
• Everyday kitchen prep in home and professional environments

Key specifications

• Blade material: stainless steel with Microplane® etched cutting edges
• Blade style: extra-large Y-shaped blade, wider and longer than conventional peelers
• Handle: ergonomic black soft-touch design for comfortable grip
• Hand orientation: suitable for right- and left-handed use
• Maintenance: easy to clean; corrosion-resistant blade

How to use

Hold the peeler by the ergonomic handle and place the blade against the surface of the fruit or vegetable. Apply light, even pressure and draw the peeler away from you or toward you in smooth strokes to remove thin layers of skin. Use the larger blade area for broader passes on wide produce and the pointed end or integrated eye remover to lift out blemishes or potato eyes. Rinse the blade after use and dry to maintain performance.

Usage recommendations

For best results, peel on a stable cutting board or over a bowl to collect peels, and use steady, moderate pressure to avoid removing excess flesh. Clean the peeler after each use and inspect the blade for any residue; although corrosion-resistant, drying the blade after washing helps prolong cutting sharpness.
