A very solid piece of equipment that fits comfortably in your hand. It is not too light and not too heavy. The size of the handle is well suited for both small as well as large hands. Thanks Chromagan it fits perfectly into the kitchen with the other WMF devices. Last but not least, the blade is very sharp and, thanks to the good stuff is probably not to be expected that this will change soon. More can not be expected from such a small peeler in my opinion.
