Melon Baller

[coxhaus]

I need want a Melon Baller. Does anybody have any thoughts on this? Do they all work about the same?

I saw this on Amazon
Amazon.com: Victorinox 7.6163-X1 Melon Baller, 4 Inch, Black: Mellon Ballers: Home & Kitchen

I think Wusthof makes one also but I did not see it.

we use ****** OXO ones for coring tomatoes. I suspect they are more or less the same.

The OXO is cheaper but it is made in China so I may stay away from it. I am trying not to buy China made stuff.

I use a Henckels 4-Star melon baller sharpened to 15 degrees on all 365 sides using a Ken Onion worksharp. But seriously, I use a Delgon baller, which is made in France. But I have a feeling that the OP might quite like the Dexter S42 Perisian cutter. Don't let the name fool you -- though it's Perisian in style, it's made in the USA.

Ok, the Delgon melon baller seems to be a single scoop only. I found the Dexter one but I can't seem to get a link to it on Amazon. It is hard to buy. It is made in the USA. I am still leaning toward the one above. I was thinking I might as well get 2 scoops on it.
