Corn Plane ordered ;)

Cheers,

You won't get any white pith at all.
They are called a Corn Scraper or Plane, and can be bought for very little from Chemist shops, I guess you guys call them a Drug Store. They beat other methods hands down in my opinion, Ive tried most other methods.

Looks like a good tool....I've never used it, I'm usually good with a sharp knife but I think that's a good tool, thanks.

Excellent tool, I modified it slightly to make it bite a little more. Thanks saltbush.

Looks like a good tool for the job. You probably get more oils with that than I do with my micro plane.

I believe there is no better peeler than the Brabantia. It kicks some serious arse in a highly focused and precise way. Like Lucy Liu. If I had to peel for my life, this is the peeler Iโ€™d pull out of my sock.
