Know before you buy
Because these tongs are made entirely of stainless steel, they can scratch non-stick surfaces if used aggressively. We recommend using them primarily for serving or with stainless steel and cast iron pans.
Yes, the durable stainless steel construction is sturdy enough for handling heavier items like steaks or chicken. The scalloped edges provide a secure grip, and the 11.65-inch length keeps your hands at a safe distance from the heat.
These tongs are designed for simple one-handed operation. You can easily open and close them while multitasking in the kitchen, and the non-slip touchpoints ensure you maintain a steady grip throughout.
This specific model does not feature a locking mechanism. They are designed to remain in an open position, which makes them immediately ready for grabbing food during service or cooking.
While the handles are metal, the non-slip touchpoints provide a layer of insulation and a better grip. However, if you are leaving them resting in a hot pan for an extended period, the handle may conduct heat, so use caution.
