Apple Corer

Anyone know where I can get an apple corer? One of those old-fashioned things that you put an apple on and then turn the crank and it peels the skin off an apple.

    Just saw them at St Lawrence Market kitchen supplies store. Eye high, at the end of the aisle near the cash.

      Sorry - yes an apple peeler is what I wanted. I forgot all about Lee Valley (and it's one of my favourite stores), but the Bed, Bath & Beyond one looks like the exact same one and 25% less expensive.

      Thanks for all of the responses!

        Benriner makes a nice one. Maybe Tap Phong on Spadina?

          Both Home Hardware and Lee Valley have apple peeler/corers.

            I found a Starfrit branded apple peeker at Zellers.

              I bought mine at the kitchen store on Avenue just south of Davenport on the west hand side of Avenue. I'm sorry I can't remember the name of the store but it's nestled in between all of the flower stores. This was a few years back, worth finding the name and calling them to see if they still carry them. Otherwise maybe try IQ living on the Danforth, they carry everything!

                That's not a corer, it's a parer. Or look for a peeler.
