Swede here. Never have I been to a household that does not have a potato peeler. You use it for everything. Potatoes, carrots, apples, pears, sweet potatoes… Sometimes cucumber if you’re making something weird/garnishy. People use knives to peel potatoes‽
Sometimes a household is a more fluid concept than you’d like and not everything in a kitchen moves from one instance of a household to the next. But there’s always a knife around and sometimes you just want a potato so you peel with what you got. But then when your household gets more stable you remember what a great time-saver a potato peeler is.
People that have moved around a lot and never had a chance to assemble a lot of cooking utensils until recently. But I’m glad your life has been so charmed you can’t imagine someone not taking a potato peeler for granted.

I’m fact, just boil the potatoes with the peel, then pinch it off after boiling. Even faster than all other methods. Also keeps nutrients.

I know you’re just trying to sound like a smartarse wank but who in the utter fuck doesn’t have a potato peeler?
Where do you live, Kyrgyzstan? 😂
