The hand forged spatula is the perfect gift! The twisted handle isn't just beautiful. It's very comfortable to use. The blade is hand cut from 16 gauge steel and riveted to the handle. These are Not Stainless Steel. They are not dishwasher safe. They are to be treated like your beloved cast iron. They come sealed with a beeswax finish. Hand wash and dry thoroughly. You can wipe a very light coat of vegetable oil on to prevent rust. They are perfect for those smash burgers the family loves! Heirloom quality.
