There are four main varieties, with preferences between those very much an acquired taste.The Lancashire and Econome designs involve the blade as an extension of a handle, in much the same way as the blade is attached to a knife. A right hander typically holds the potato in his left hand and holding the peeler in the fingers of the right hand and the top of the potato with the thumb of the right hand. The action then involves using the fingers of the right hand to pull the peeler's blade over the skin of the potato, turning it slightly so that it digs in and removes the potato skin, in a movement towards the right thumb. This also uses the grip of the right thumb to allow the movement of the fingers of the right hand to be based on the contraction of the right hand in a claw movement which is easier to accomplish than if the movement of the right fingers were to be controlled by the right arm or wrist.Left-handed people usually transpose the hands in the above explanation.[citation needed]
