    Best metal chopsticks I’ve ever used, December 8, 2007

    The biggest problem I’ve had with metal chopsticks is that they are too thin and hard to use. However, since these are made of hollowed stainless steel, they are of similar proportion to wooden chopsticks and are about as easy to use. My only complaint is that the grips are rounded, not squared, which I think is harder to use.

    They are more slippery than wooden chopsticks though, and since they taper to separate points it is a bit hard to eat noodles. Secondly, they do heat up quickly if you’re eating hot soup, so don’t leave them in your soup (just rest it on top of the bowl). These are problems inherent in all metal chopsticks though, so they aren’t really a con.

    Pros:
    -Lightweight
    -Same size as wooden chopsticks
    -Stylish
    -Easier to clean

    Cons:
    -Heat up when eating soup
    -Slippery
    -Rounded grips

    I really like these chopsticks a lot – I have purchased many sets for myself, my extended family and to give my friends. Wooden chopsticks will develop cracks and fissures over time between the laquer and the wood and also within the wood that are hard if not impossible to really get clean, especially if you wash them in the dishwasher. I would think that ancient bits of food can get lodged within the crevices. These steel chopsticks feel like the a cross between japanese style chopsticks (tapered towards the tip) and chinese style (blocky on the top and rounded at the tip). They are hollow so are very lightweight. Nice and smooth, very comfortable in my hands. It would be nice if some texture were applied to the bottom couple of inches to add some friction so eating noodles was bit easier. With this change, these chopsticks would be a perfect 5 stars but are nearly perfect as they are!

    I bought these to go with a Zojirushi lunch container. I thought that the stainless steel chopsticks would be cool to use with it. While they do indeed work, I prefer more traditional wooden chopsticks to these. Being metal and slick, they are a little more difficult to use. Plus, I don’t like the *clink* *clink* noise they make while you are eating.

    The good thing about them, however, is they come clean very easily. No worries about something soaking in and making you sick.
