Rosle's latest interpretation of the standard kitchen tong sheds new light on an old friend. These 18/10 stainless steel tongs feature a patented automatic locking mechanism that engages or releases by turning the tongs upside down or right side up. While other companies have attempted this type of design in the past, none have executed the idea with such elegant simplicity. The solid, heavy gauge stainless steel construction holds food securely and gently, preventing damage and ensuring perfect presentation. The tongs measure 12 inches long and are dishwasher safe.
