Ateco Straight Spatula with 8-Inch Stainless Steel Blade, Wood Handle

Used it to smooth off a repair to a concrete window-sill, using cement powder, silver sand and dilute PVA. No problems.

Good quality item and good value too.

gifted this to a friend and they said that the sticker on the spatula is hard and annoying to get off but I think it's alright besides that.

The blade works great. However, after washing, the handle is very rough.

I do not use for icing as I don’t make cakes. Rather I use to get ghee out of big jar, etc. I had been using the same spatula my mom had (meaning it is VERY old) and the wooden handle was beginning to give way. I looked at stores and the ones I saw were not straight which I prefer. I had ordered another one through Amazon which I promptly returned as I didn’t like it at all. This one is a delight. I am thrilled.

I use to own a similar tool years ago & would frequently wished I had it. This is a great replacement! I've only had it for a few weeks, but have used it many times. I made pies from scratch for Thanksgiving & this spatula made it so much easier to loosen the rolled-out dough & help lift it onto pie plates. Great size for lifting smaller cookies off the pan or lifting smaller cuts of cake, etc. It is more versatile in the kitchen than a butter knife for things like loosening the edges of a cake from the sides of a pan & then using it to serve pieces. An all-around great kitchen item. I never soak the handle in water & keep the wooden handle oiled periodically as I do with all my wooden cutting boards, bowls, handles, etc. to keep them from cracking or drying out. Very well made product that will last for years.

This was recommended by a recipe and I love it. It really makes frosting the sides of a layer cake much easier.
