The peeler looks elegant and is initially well in hand. The heavy duty handle makes you feel "Now off you go." Unfortunately, the blade peels thin and often slips off. Although I have medium-sized hands, peeling after half an hour is inconvenient and I have constantly the position of the peeler in hand correct. Conclusion: Looks good, is for what is offered but clearly too expensive. Now have both Swivel Peeler WMF (once the Profi Plus with stainless steel handle and even the slight Blackline ordered). Both are perfectly in the hand and also the blade is usual quality.
