Review on πŸ”ͺ JB Prince Straight Tip Tweezer - 10 inch: Precise and Versatile Kitchen Tool by Nancy Ruesink

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Sturdy, well built (those dark tweezers

This is a big pair of tweezers. Think of a simple pair of tweezers, like the ones that pluck hair, only get to be many times larger than a steak, but they're a bit nimble , so you can handle tender vegetables, gyoza, egg rolls without damaging/tearing them. Good hole size and resistance (not too weak/light but not too heavy/great force required) allows for a good feel for some delicate ones Tasks Of course it won't be good at carrying something very large/heavy, like a full rack of pork ribs or a bunch of beef ribs, but that's what the heavier tongs are for (although the tongs aren't that good for delicate tasks), but they is a bit large and unwieldy for serving flowers or microgreens in a very complex arrangement (but better than a big cake pro) A kind of small P forceps (like surgeons use) would be much better, but tiny coated forceps can't pick up anything meaningful. It looks like it is 1 piece or welded on one end. I have slightly larger 12" kuchenprofi tweezers but it looks like it's 2 pieces glued together instead of 1 like jb prince. At the same time, I cannot speak about the durability of one or the other, since I had them very briefly. In the short time I've had them, they're holding up well. I'm not sure if many people think about it or mention it, but it's much better than using chopsticks. Much faster, much easier to use, better dexterity all round. Before anyone starts ranting about race, being less silly, etc., I myself am an East Asian person who is very knowledgeable and casually uses different types of chopsticks for different purposes. , be it cooking, eating, hairdressing, stabbing, weaponizing, impaling, stirring, picking, poking, cleaning, etc. Picking up individual grains of rice with chopsticks is not uncommon for me (I'm not the type to just put food away from bowl to mouth, since many claim to know how to use chopsticks but are actually not very good at it). For almost every kitchen/cooking as well as eating, tweezers work much better than kitchen sticks. I think few people can lift heavy steaks, fry gyoza and egg rolls, and stack microgreens with chopsticks with the same dexterity and ease as they can with tongs. that doesn't mean you have to be cocky and bland yourself. This is a useful tool that is simply associated with something pompous and high-flying.

Pros
  • Delicious Feeling
Cons
  • Vulgarity
