triangle Fruit and Vegetable Corer - Ultra-Sharp Stainless Steel with Two Cutting Widths - Removes Cores & Seeds - Dishwasher Safe

I bought this for cleaning the strings and seeds out of Acorn Squash before baking. It works quite well for that, but would be too big for many small vegetables. Acorn Squash is typically about 6 inches (150 mm) in diameter.Although not clear from the photos and description, both sides are sharpened, but they are not sharp enough to endanger one's fingers.

Amazingly simple to use great addition to the kitchen.

This is what we have used to core pears for many years. It's nice to have a new one and it still does the best job of removing pear cores. So far it stands up to our yearly canning usage quite well. Makes canning pears much easier and more effective than other ones.

Because of it's unique shape, it can handle coring just about any fruit or vegetable.Many people don't know this, but some (or all?) apple seeds contain Cyanide. I don't believe it's an overwhelming amount, but that is a consideration. For people who toss apples in their smoothie maker, this is an issue. Although I've not heard of people getting sick from this, I don't want pulverized apple seeds in my smoothies.For whatever reason you want to remove seeds or other parts of fruits or veggies, this tool does work very well.

Does the job well. We use it for coring fresh raw pears to prepare them for use in pastries at our bakery. Because pears are relatively fragile and, well, pear-shaped, most of the normal coring and peeling devices can't be used. And coring them with a knife or a spoon can be messy if they are very ripe. I remembered this little gadget from my days as a kitchen helper 45 years ago and was happy to find that they are still around. And in Stainless Steel!!

Looked in all the local stores for this gadget and no one had it. Then tried Amazon bingo!. This is the best tool for taking the core out of pears when canning. Love it

Sharp and sturdy

Got this to remove peach pits
