Great for getting everything off the bottom of the pan

I've never used a spoon like this for soups. I just used traditional spoons, but this one is amazing for scraping flat across the bottom of the pan to get everything stirred up and to get everything out of the pan when transferring to a storage container.
I've been a serious home cook for 40+ years and I've never come across a spoon close to this one for skimming fat. The stub nose can go near the edge of the pot and with a very small tilt, the fat just rushes in, leaving the good stuff behind. Nice enough to use as a serving spoon too. This product can't be beat.
I love using this for cooking ground beef. I can separate the meat easily and the flat end works great with my cast iron pans. The spoon is deep and can pick up liquid easily.
The texture of the spoon was a little surprising for a stainless steel utensil, as some had mentioned in previous reviews; however, I have been very happy with this spoon's performance thus far. It is incredibly sturdy, yet light, and its shape allows me to scrape both the bottom and corners of all of my pots and roasting pans. The spoon is truly dishwasher safe, and I haven't noticed any discoloration or signs of rust after the first several washings. I was excited to find some stainless steel utensils made in the USA, and so far, I couldn't be happier!
I love everything I have bought from Rada! The knives are sharp and easily sharpened when needed. The spatulas(turners) are a wonderful size for flipping burgers and pancakes, and the knifee blocks are sturdy and attractive. Rada can't be beat!
