Wood handle fits well in my hand. Doesn’t scratch my new caraway pans.

Very nice, doesn't bend too much. Hand wash only.

My kitchen is full of Staub kitchen utensils because they’re all very functional, well built, and very high quality. You’ll never damage a pan with this spatula and it’s much stronger than you might think. I just wish they made a large pancake sized spatula! Remember not to never place Staub wooden handle utensils into the dishwasher as that wood handle will quickly disintegrate. I think these are the best kitchen utensils you can buy.
