Mercer Kitchen Tools

The 10-inch Hell’s Tools spatula scrapes bowls and stirs in hot pans without scratching them. Its high-heat silicone head holds its shape up to 500°F and flexes to follow the curve of a bowl, so batter and sauce come out clean.A notch in the head lets it rest on the rim of a pan, and a raised kickstand keeps the head off the counter between uses. This size suits home baking, folding egg whites and scraping out small saucepans.

The shears also have a built-in bottle opener and nutcracker.

Mercer’s poultry shears are built for breaking down chicken, turkey, duck and small game: trimming joints, cutting along the backbone and working into tight spots a knife cannot reach. The long, curved blade sets the proper cutting angle, and fine micro-serrations hold the meat while the shears cut through.A safety lock keeps the blades closed when they are not in use, and the textured handle gives a firm grip. They also work for gutting fish.
