Tom Douglas by Pinzon Bamboo Tongs, Set of 2

 (25 customer reviews)

In most cases I am all about the bamboo. Every since getting my first Totally Bamboo Kauai Cutting Board and changing over my wooden spoons to bamboo, I have been on the lookout for things in my kitchen I can replace with bamboo.

Not only is it ecologically friendly, I find bamboo to be beautiful and just as useful as any other wood. (although bamboo is technically a grass and not a wood). Some of those expensive olive wood spoons look fantastic but you can buy a full set of equally-beautiful bamboo spoons for the same price.

Unfortunately, while bamboo might replace other woods, apparently it doesn't replace metal. Because these "Tom Douglas by Pinzon Bamboo Tongs, Set of 2" just don't work very well as a set of kitchen tongs.

You get two tongs in this set, one wider and flatter and the other longer...Read more

I have already used, and dishwasher washed these tongs a number of times. I especially like to use the narrower tongs to get bread items out of my toaster. However, both tongs work well when cooking with any type of teflon coated pans. These are quality made wooden tongs that would be plus to have in any busy kitchen.

These tongs are perfect. Well constructed and sturdy. Although a tad more expensive then other bamboo tongs you can purchase, their quality is well worth the price.
