My first potato peeler (Sparschäler) I got this Sparschäler 10 years ago already used by my grand mother. It is still a mass product and you can buy it for round about 5 USD. But this one is made in West Germany so at least 33 years old and almost daily in use.Submitted by Secundus_Scipio t3_123nebi in BuyItForLife

In this video dude shows how it can be "adjusted" so it has a bigger gap. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=026hpz0rMDA&ab_channel=SnackamEckMensing

that's why "adjusted" was put in quotes... Old tech is kinda like that though.
