Kyoto Katsugu 京都活具 collaborates with local craftsmen to create kitchen tools that blend traditional sensibility with modern performance. This peeler is a traditional-style hōchō-ba 包丁刃 vegetable peeler, designed to bring the sharp cutting feel of a knife blade into an everyday kitchen tool. The natural wooden handle fits comfortably in the hand, giving the peeler a secure, steady grip, while also adding a warm tactile contrast to the steel blade.
Its thoughtful form is made for clean, controlled peeling on firm vegetables such as carrots, daikon and potatoes, with the blade working smoothly when drawn across a stable board. The reverse side also allows for removing tougher skin, such as the outer skin of burdock root, making it a versatile tool for careful prep work. Light, practical and quietly well made, it reflects the kind of functional craft often valued in Kyoto kitchenware, where simple tools are designed to feel reliable, balanced and easy to live with.
