The worse I can say is it might be too sharp, you have to be careful with it as lest you want to poke a hole out the back.
If you make stuffed Zucchinis this is a nice tool to have.

This is an elegant kitchen implement that is a pleasure to hold and to behold. It has enabled me to hollow squash I would have never dared to tackle before. And yet, is this the best that centuries of kitchen technology can devise for this task? I would think a large, sharp-edged spoon thing like a surgical curette would work better. The problem is, this implement will allow you to cut material from the walls of the squash, but doesn't really help you to drag it back up. And there's a real risk of going too far, and perforating the end of the squash. Maybe I'm not using it right! Maybe there's a youtube video on hollowing squash...Update, several months and many squash later: While I still think a spoon-like device would be useful for hollowing squash, one does get more comfortable with this tool with experience. If you whip the tool around, you can easily break up the pulp so that, on inverting the squash, the pulp slithers out as you draw the corer outward. So I am increasingly happy with my purchase.
