Vegetable peelers go dull rather fast. I spent many, many years just tossing them out and buying new ones. I wish I learned this trick when I first moved out on my own:Just take the back of a paring knife and run it back and forth against the blades. Flip the peeler over and do the same. I bought a paring knife at the 99 cent store just for this purpose.

Good tip, Attosa! Love seeing your newest nail art too :-)
Thank you, Deeli! And so happy you noticed my nails ;) xx
Wow, how many have I thrown out over the years ;( What a great tip!
This is great! I wonder if it would work on nail clippers?
Do you run the knife cross-wise or up and down the length of the blade? Thanks.
Great tip will try this but my problem is I keep losing mine I scoop my peeler up with the peelings and through them away on the compost I try to remember to put the peeler away from the peelings but every now an again I forget.
Do you ever look at and reply to the comments so that all can see?... some are questions others would like the answer to
