Küchenprofi 12-Inch Tweezer Tongs in 18/10 Stainless Steel

They're large tweezers. Imagine simple tweezers like the ones for plucking hair, but just blown up many times larger. It's sturdy enough to grip relatively heavy stuff like a decent sized steak, but it's somewhat nimble such that you can handle delicate vegetables, gyoza, egg rolls w/o damaging/ripping them apart. Having a good sized opening and good resistance (not too flimsy/light, yet also not too heavy/major force needed) lends itself to having a good enough feel for somewhat delicate tasks. Sure, it won't do well carrying something very large/heavy like a full rack of pork ribs or bunch of beef ribs, but that's what more heavy duty tongs are for (though tongs aren't so good for delicate tasks). It can be done, but it's a bit large & unwieldy for plating flowers or micro greens in a very exacting arrangement. Something like small tweezers (like the ones surgeons use) would be much better, but tiny plating tweezers can't lift anything of any significance. Like mentioned in other reviews, it looks like it's 2 pieces stuck together rather than 1 piece (I have another slightly smaller tweezer tongs that look like 1 piece). I can't speak about it's durability, as I've only had it a short time, but I can see how long term use, abuse, bad conditions, etc could lead it to splitting. At least in the short time I've had it, it's held together well. Not sure if many people think about or mention this, but this is way better than using chopsticks. Much faster, much easier to use, all around better dexterity. Before anyone goes on some rant about race, being a culture less oaf, etc., I myself am an East Asian person that is very much adept and at ease with using various types of chopsticks for different purposes, whether it be cooking, eating, hair, stabbing, weapons, skewering, stirring, picking up, dowel, cleaning, etc. Picking up single grains of rice w/ chopsticks is hardly unusual for me (I'm not the type to just shovel food from the bowl into my mouth like many that claim they know how to use chopsticks, but really truly aren't that good at it). For just about any kitchen/cooking as well as eating purpose, tweezer tongs work much better than cooking chopsticks. I think very few people can lift heavy steaks, fry gyoza & egg rolls, and arrange micro greens with the same dexterity & ease with cooking chopsticks compared to tweezer tongs. Sure, tweezer food has a bad rep for being bourgie frou frou pretentiousness, but that doesn't mean you yourself have to be pretentious and vapid. It's a useful tool that just gets associated with something pompous & highfaluting.

These are so AWESOME! I never knew I needed something like this! Great quality, do those delicate things you’ve always wanted to do, easy to hold, great long reach over a hot pan, swirl those noodles like a professional

Got these after seeing a podcast of chefs saying this was the one at home kitchen tool that every home cook didn’t know they needed. Gave them to a friend who makes tortillas and crêpes. She loved it.

Love these, work great while cooking

I bought these kitchen tweezers for culinary tasks requiring a high degree of precision and accuracy, such as turning small bay scallops while sautéing. Overall, I'm quite happy with this tool and I'm getting a lot more use out of it than I thought I would. These allow much more finesse and accuracy than traditional tongs, and they're also less likely to damage delicate foods since, compared to regular tongs, you have more control and there are fewer sharp edges. My only complaint--and the reason for my 4-star rating--is that the tweezers don't line up perfectly at the very end when closed, and the very tip actually flares out rather than closing tightly (see photos). For the majority of tasks, this is completely irrelevant. But when trying to pick up a very small item using the very tip, this imperfection doesn't allow the tool to be used. I don't know if this is a design flaw or if my pair is an anomaly, but this is something you should consider if you're buying these for very, very fine work using the very tip of the tweezers. Despite this flaw, these are very useful, and well worth the money.

Must have for everyone’s kitchen

Fast delivery, and chef tweezers work great.

five-star

ottimo prodotto ad un ottimo prezzo

Good product

Die Küchenpinzette ist ein absoluter Gamechanger in der Küche. Durch die Längr von 30cm ist man mit der Hand genug weit von der Hitze der Pfanne entfernt und man wird nicht mit Fett oder Sauce vollgespritzt. Sie liegt super in der Hand und durch die Rillen rutscht man auch nicht ab. Sie ist formstabil und wird in der Spülmaschine jedes Mal tip top sauber. Klare Kaufempfehlung.

Great product at the price. Not certain I'd use them for turning a roast though. I purchased them for plating and still life photography work.

El producto es de buena calidad, lo utilicé para jardinería, para poder alcanzar hojas secas entre las plantas con difícil acceso.
