Chef Kunz Spoon | Silver Stainless Steel 2 Tbsp Basting Spoon, 9 Inch Solid Sauce Spoons, Big Serving Spoons Stainless Steel, Plating & Quenelle & Cooking

I use this spoon for basting, it is PHENOMENAL

We had one of these spoons for years and finally decided one wasn’t enough! So we bought two more and happiness rules.

The Silver Stainless Steel 2 Tbsp Chef Spoon (9-inch Big Spoon) has a great, familiar shape. Even if you're not a kitchen professional, you've probably seen the famous "Chef Kunz" (aka Gray Kunz or JB Prince) sauce spoon on TV. Chefs baste their cast iron steaks, for example, with a large, durable spoon shaped just like this one. This version of "the spoon" is more reasonably priced than the official one, and it performs very well. The shape of the bowl is excellent for precision saucing, drizzling, you name it, it will roll off the front of the bowl in a precise, controlled flow. The spoon has good weight and balance.The wide handle is well-shaped and easy to hold and control, with one caveat: the edges of the handle (especially at the tip) should be better rounded. The edges are not sharp enough to cut, but they are rough enough to be uncomfortable. Could be some quality control issues in the manufacturing. Still it's a very good, well-balanced spoon that I'm enjoying using.

Perfect spoon for tasting sauces

High quality and great construction

I read on Wirecutter that this is the restaurant chef’s tool that home cooks need most. After a couple of weeks, I do find myself reaching for this very often. Works great for basting, stirring, and serving.

Amazon lists lots of "Kunz" spoons of this type, which vary slightly in the size of the bowl. I suggest looking at spoons from a different manufacturer because, as one reviewer (who received the spoon free) warned in March 2025: "The edges are not sharp enough to cut, but they are rough enough to be uncomfortable. The edges of the handle (especially at the tip) should be better rounded. " The reviewer was entirely correct. The march 2025 thought their (free) spoon was still good enough to award 4 stars. I paid for mine. It gets only 2. The spoon works well, but the manufacturing quality is poor, especially for the price.

I use this spoon daily whenever I am in the kitchen preparing a sauce or a soup. It makes tasting as you go easy. Easy to clean. Almost indestructible. Relatively inexpensive given its usefulness.
