I once saw a cooking show on television, as a has ever used this cooking shovel to convey small geschnippeltes vegetables or herbs from the cutting board in bowls or pots. I found this thing awesome. So far I have used it a "dough scraper" of plastic that has but discolors slightly reddish with red peppers. I also learned that this tool has a name. We say "Schlesinger". Anyway, I made my part then give time and got it since then actually almost daily use. I find this simple utensil animal practice. The area is great in terms of size, because what is it tidy. In addition, it is super easy to clean because it's just made of stainless steel. At first I thought it would be more comfortable and more convenient if the bent handle was something more shot. But as it is, the cooking shovel's just better to clean because nothing can get tangled in a fed-bent handle. Whether one finds the zisilierte pattern on the blade beautiful, is debatable. I would not have needed the ornament. The "Schlesinger" pretty sharp - In addition, the edges of these cooking shovel - forgiveness. For the price and a proprietary brand might have been expected already that the edges are smooth polished or sanded. That would have made more sense than the pattern. Could be about the price of 17,80 now think, but I'd rather leave it, because there's no point ... A piece of thin steel with an area of approximately 20 x 14 cm, at the upper end slightly bent and quite sharp cost almost 18 euros ... But what the heck, it's a brand that's just like that. Nevertheless, I am very satisfied and would definitely buy this thing again - no - let me give back!
