“SAIBASHI” TONGS - STAINLESS STEEL - EAトCO - YOSHIKAWA
Half tongs, half chopsticks: saibashi are long Japanese cooking chopsticks, combined here into a single pair of easy-to-hold stainless steel tongs.
They grip firmly like tongs and handle food with the precision of chopsticks. Use them to turn a piece of meat or fish, handle small vegetables or delicate foods, and remove fried food from the fryer.
True to Japanese engineering, the fine tips meet perfectly. They are ideal for plating with millimeter precision, adding a few fresh herbs, or serving noodles at the table.
The end of the handle is designed to prevent it from slipping off the edge of dishes.
The perfect tool for cooking, plating, and serving.
Made in Tsubame-Sanjō, Niigata Prefecture, Japan.

Yoshikawa, Tsubame-Sanjō metalwork since 1946
Tsubame-Sanjō, in Niigata Prefecture, is Japan’s major center for metalwork. It was there in 1946 that Yoshikawa Kinzoku, a metal trading company, began making spoons and forks from scraps from a local stainless steel mill.
Now based in Yahiko, Yoshikawa designs its utensils and has them made by workshops in Tsubame-Sanjō. They are simple, robust items designed to last. EAトCO is its range of utensils built around one idea: eating and cooking (EAT + COOK).
