channel knife

Most channel knives and citrus peelers are made from stainless steel. Some models pair a stainless-steel blade with a walnut wood handle.

Channel knives are designed for lemons, limes, and oranges. At least one listing also notes use as a coconut scraper.

A channel knife has a curved or channel blade that cuts ribbon-like twists or elegant peels, while a zester uses sharp blades to create fine zest shavings.

Shoppers use channel knives to finish cocktails with twists and decorative peels and to add citrus zest to baked goods, salads, seafood, and other recipes.

Listings typically show a single-piece tool (Number of Pieces: 1).
