Bocchi no Boku ni Kyousei Kanojo ga Yattekita - Vol. 4 Ch. 25

This does explain a lot.

 

[Kaarme]

I know the Japanese are really proud of their chef knives, and they should be, they are good, but couldn't a bloody child be given a regular peeler instead when peeling a potato? You gain absolutely nothing by peeling a vegetable like that with a big ass knife, so it's only pride talking.

cant believe the series got continued, thanks for the chapter!!

 

[LordofLeechers]

Well, that's certainly a chapter to come back to after a few months.

 

[Memnon]

It sounds less like his mom is depressed and more like she's bipolar (although that doesn't mean she can't be both).

 

[Zay]

Thank you so much for the scanlation! I really really enjoy this manga.

It’s been translated on manga park by another group since late July after getting it from the og scanlator

I'm not Japanese, but I don't like using a peeler. I don't feel comfortable using them, and I find it easier to use a knife (whether it's large, small, or a normal size). Even when I've worked in a kitchen, I've always preferred using knives to peel things rather than a peeler.
So I don't think it's a matter of "pride"; maybe his mother doesn't like peelers and doesn't have one at home.

If you have worked professionally in a kitchen, you are overqualified to evaluate this case! You'd probably do it faster with a simple knife as well, even if you didn't dislike peelers. However, that's not really the case for laymen. If you aren't highly skilled and try to be fast with a knife, you will end up with red potatoes with a distinct taste of iron.
