What's the most efficient way for peeling potatoes by hand? (sh.itjust.works)

Like, I get comments from people telling me it's weird I always try to peel potatoes like I am trying to make the worlds longest 1-piece potato peel. To me it feels way for efficient and fun to continu down a potato in 1 peel, while circling around it, instead of randomly scraping a hundred different pieces of peel off and having to reintroduce the cutter knife to the potato for every piece.

Yeah, except for mashed potatoes the skin stays on.

Nope, skin stays in for mashed as well. Mashed red potatoes with skins, a few lumps & loads of roasted garlic!
