Lamson 4" x 9" Chef's Slotted Turner with Noir Ultra Durable Handle - Right Hand

I will preface this by saying I know well what quality tools feel like and this instantly feels solid in the hand. Steel is beautiful and thick enough to be confident turning heavier items, it also came with a nice edge to it. Small touches like hand ground edges are not missed either. It is on the expensive side, yes, but with these thing you get what you pay for, and I would rather pay a little more for a tool that will last the next 20 years than have to re-buy a crappy version of it every 2 years. I have been using a small fish turner and cast iron skillet as my go to for pretty much everything and my last one finally bit the dust - it was a miu france with synthetic handle that I stupidly melted and decided to switch to wood handles for good. This feels sturdier than the miu which I had no complaints about - will oil the handle and expect it to last a very long time...as long as I don't manage to set it on fire.

This is a nice spatula. It’s a little expensive, but I got it for the left-handed option. I’m a little disappointed the rivets aren’t stainless steel, and are oxidizing. I have an older right-handed MIU fish spatula that was less money and seems to be a bit nicer, no oxidizing rivets and it doesn’t scratch up my pans as much as the Lamson.

I had wanted a long spatula and just kept putting it off. I wanted a good quality one that could withstand my kitchen. I love this spatula! I realized how much I was struggling when I started using this one. I use it almost every time I am cooking something on my skillets. I have non stick, but they are made for metal spatulas. I didn't pay the current price, since I got it during a holiday sale. I refuse to pay full price.

This is now my favorite turner/spatula for lifting, flipping/turning food! This Lamson Chef’s turner is on the far left in my photo next to my other spatulas for comparison. This turner is longer and narrower with a full tang to add strength and durability. It has a slight bend to enhance it’s lifting ability and flexibility. This turner replaces a more conventional flexible blade spatula that broke where the top joined to a long handle. My other spatulas are: 1. A fully rigid (one piece stainless). My husband likes this one for turning hamburgers; 2. Two all metal spatulas of different sizes that are too flexible due to very thin metal. I rarely use them; 3. A too thick spatula due to silicone covering- that makes it challenging to lift food completely. Perhaps, if I owned non- stick cookware, it might get more use. This made in the USA Lamson Chef’s turner hits the “Goldilocks” sweet spot—not too rigid, not too flexible—just right! The top edge is beveled to make it easier to get under food without leaving a layer on the pan for all types of food. I use it in cast iron or stainless steel pans, as well as stainless and aluminum cookie sheets. I still use an all wood spatula for stir frying. My only suggestions to the manufacturer would be to burnish the wood handle a little smoother (it is not uncomfortable, just a personal preference), and to check that the metal edge by wooden handle is perfectly smoothed. (My hand does not touch this area and it is only a minor cosmetic blemish that I fixed on my own). I would purchase this again for myself, a relative, or for a gift.

It is USA made hence on the expensive side but I admire the quality and finesse. I recommend this product and would buy it again

This has become our go-to spatula in the kitchen, from pancakes to fish. Well-made, balanced, and worth the money.

Now that I own this spatula, I realize that it's been sorely missing from my list of kitchen tools. It is amazing at getting under, lifting off, and turning over just about anything I'm cooking in my cast-iron skillet, such as steaks, pork-chops, fish, and even eggs. Others have said that it bends too easily or is loose between the metal and wood, but I so far have not had either of those problems in using it with fairly heavy pieces of meat. It also feels good in the hand and is a good size for my uses.As it's metal, I wouldn't recommend using it in a scratchable non-stick skillet, but otherwise, I highly recommend it.

Big and beautiful just like my women. No really, this is really big LOL, might want to go with the smaller one unless you know specifically that you need to turn big and heavy food, or large fish fillets. Kinda regret buying this one and probably gonna have to buy a smaller one.... be sure to maintain this beauty with mineral oil. It will last you a life time and you will be able to give it to your kids.The handle feels great, its got a great finish.... this thing is perfect. Its a BuyItForLife item. Google reddit BIFL and let them know about it.The curve at the tip is absolutely perfect and the steel is great quality. If America's Test Kitchen had this turner on their show, it would have beat the hell out of that other more expensive garbage plastic handle Wusthof turner that stole the #1 spot. Included some pics of the curve and size for your viewing pleasure.

High quality turner, still keeping its shape after several months of use. I strongly recommend this product. It will last very very long time I believe.

Love it to scrape bottom of cast iron pan.

It was an original branded product. I know many got something else. I got what I paid for.

Very good quality and a fast shipping
