NorproBlack My Favorite Spatula with Holes

I LOVE this spatula!! narrow but long, making it easier to flip things.

Great spatula to serve cake from non stick baking sheets.

Perfect spatula for small non-stick skillets and I use it anywhere else as its the best fitting to my hand that I have. Well worth the price and I should have bought more so I could have one when the others are in the dishwasher or sink. It IS MY FAVORITE!Update: This sheds plastic at the edge over time. I left one sit in a hot empty skillet, it melted a divot in the handle, then it snapped at that divot while applying pressure to a hamburger patty. I'm going to buy another because I don't know of a better solution and I like the shape and size. I've owned this one for a long time so maybe the answer is to replace them when you see them wearing and shedding, even melting. I'm changing it to 4 stars because of durability over time.

excellent

I purchased this about 18 months ago to replace my wife's similar spatula that broke across one of the hole lines. This one is starting the same break, so not bad. It lasted 18 months The drawback as I see it are the holes; both from the break weakness but also from a clean up standpoint. My wife cleans it with scrubber but I started to notice food remaining around the sides, in the holes where the scrubber can't get. This results in me using a small tube-style brush and running it in and out of every hole. Yes, a pain but it gets the food off the spatula. My next one will not have holes.

I've been obsessing about spatula's lately. I don't really have a good one and have been muddling along with Walmart & KMart stuff. They work fine but I was looking for something better. So, I took the shotgun approach and bought three of 'em on Amazon. This was number two.Sizing things online is sometimes misleading even when dimensions are available. They got the length right on this one: it's 10 inches. The width they said was 2.5 inches: it's not. The width is 2 3/8". And yes, it does make a difference. The spatula portion has beveled edges so this might work just fine for cookies, fudge and brownies. Flipping small stuff in a frying pan works great. Just don't try to flip a large egg with it unless you like scrambled eggs.Kitchen utensils is like guns and guitars: ya never have enough!! It'll work fine for something around the kitchen, just not what I'd intended it for (breakfast).

17 years ago I bought the most wonderful Swedish spatula by Berndes from a discount store like tjmaxx. I loved the spatula so much I searched to find it online and amazon had it, so I bought 3 more to have as backups. My daughters each took one for college because they loved those spatulas too. I can't find the original anymore and noticed that this looked like a good dupe for it, plus it has great reviews. All I can say is that if you ever had the original, you will be so disappointed in this. First of all it has unusual sharp edges that I'm worried it would scratch my pans. The handle is angled slightly more so it feels different when you hold it. It looks nearly identical in pictures, yet in person you can tell it's not the same quality. I know this sounds rambling for a dumb spatula, but if you ever had the swedish one you would know why I'm so obsessed with it

The thing I like most about this spatula is the handle--it is not a very thick handle so it fits better when stored with other utensils. So far it has held up well to heat and the dishwasher.
