Yes, much more comfortable than others, and you get a better grip,
with less chance of the handle slipping out of your hand. The blades
are sharper than most others that I've had, too. And they swivel to
navigate curves in the potatoes that you're peeling.

They're not very costly. Why not do a side-by-side comparison?
