Want to Get as MUCH as You Can Off That Corn Cob? Here’s How!
The deal is, you just need the right tool. There are a lot of corn cob strippers on the market, and I’ve tried most of them. But I’ve found one that definitely can be considered “the right tool.” It’s so effective that I can’t keep the news to myself.

It’s the Professional Corn Stripper. It’s made of food grade materials and is BA free. It has a strong and durable handle, anti-rust stainless steel double side blade. I’ve found it consistently removes corn from the cob effortlessly and efficiently.
More on the handle: Besides being strong and durable, it also has a comfortable grip—important for this kind of kitchen work.
It’s double-sided blade’s teeth are sharp, so sharp that the corn kernels seem to slide off the cob. This is important to any of us that have a little arthritis in the hands. Of all the corn kernel strippers I’ve used, this one takes less hand strength to get the job done.
This super-sharp, serrated and vertical blade comes with a cover protector too, which is nice for storage—it keeps the blade sharp and your hands safe when it’s not in use. To top it off, the handle comes with a hook hole so you can hang it if you don’t have a lot of drawer storage.
I love how this tool can remove close to 5 rows off the cob at one time. And this corn knife is very easy to clean. You just rinse it with water and use a dish brush to remove any leftover kernels on the blade.

Finally, this handy tool is dishwasher safe. And the manufacturer claims it’s so durable they offer a money-back guarantee. I found mine on amazon.com. They offer a pack of two for about $14.00 plus shipping.
I know this sounds like an advertisement and you’re wondering if I have stock in the company or receive a kick back when someone goes out and buys it. But no, I’m in no way affiliated with this product. I just love it and feel a sense of responsibility to pass on any information when I find something that makes my kitchen work easier. And this corn-on-the-cob stripper definitely does. (And SO MUCH SAFER than a knife!)

If you already have one, I’d love to hear from you. Do you like it?
