"Rex" peeler
The popular name of this appliance in German – "Sparschäler" or economy peeler – refers not only to its economical use (the peelings are minimised) and price, but also to the outlay on materials, the number of individual components and the method of manufacture. This appliance, which has become a classic design, is still produced today in virtually unchanged form.
