Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Tom Douglas by Pinzon Dexter-Russell Stainless-Steel Slotted Fish Turner
Customer Review: OK, USA made, and does the job
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a special run of the standard Dexter-Russell 6 1/2" slotted turner and is sold exclusively (I think) by amazon. Outside of the Tom Douglas logo on the blade it appears identical and, if you're buying through amazon, sells for a few dollars less. it's also about a third more than similar products made in China.
Functionally it does it's job, is reasonably flexible, but does need the blade front honed slightly, which can be done over time with use or immediately with a sharpening stone. The handle, at least on my example, may be walnut, but not of the same quality as you might expect. However, it is firmly attached with two brass rivets and provides a secure grip. Additionally it's not likely to suffer disfigurement if left resting on a skillet rim. Overall the combination of flexibility and strength appears about right and the turner does it's job of gently turning fragile foods well. It's also the sort of kitchen tool you tend to keep in your hand so it serves double duty when turning fond into a pan sauce or lifting heavier items (small filet or chop) from a crowded pan without carrying excessive oil when plating. It doesn't have a particularly "gourmet" look, but it is functional and of reasonably high quality.
To me the virtue of functionality and US manufacturing make it a solid choice if you're looking for a multi-purpose slotted turner.
