Product Review ~ MSR Alpine Spatula

Wanna see a grown woman cry? Watch her boil water half asleep for her morning coffee and lift the pot to find her MSR Alpine spatula melted to the side of it.

Yep! Someone washed dishes (not me) the night before and thought the grill of the cook stove a grand thing to double as a drying rack. Truthfully, only one edge was wasted, but it was a good excuse to replace it with a fresh one :)

I really like camping products that are lightweight and stowable, foldable, as in take the least room possible. At 21 grams this little tool is as strong as it is lightweight, has a strong joint as well as being just big enough to flip a midsize pancake or quesodilla. The serrated edge is a nice bonus and the handle is generous enough to keep your hand a bit away from the heat.

At $5.95 I can't say enough about this little tool...except that someday all my kitchen will be this ultralight and happy.
