HIC Kitchen's granny fork is specially designed to do it all. It's the same practical two-prong design that grandmothers have used in kitchens for over a century. It lifts, turns, pokes, pierces, whisks, pricks, tastes, stirs, shreds, carves and more. Measuring 8 in long with 4-1/4 in blade, its sharp curved tines are the ideal length at the optimal space apart to maneuver foods easier than using a dinner fork. It's the ideal kitchen utensil to cook chicken, bacon, pork chops, cutlets, minute steaks, vegetables, poke potatoes before baking them, maneuver food from roasting pans to platters or cutting boards and so much more. It's ideal for sauting, frying and braising without feeling the heat. It's great for preparing lunch or brunch, holiday meals, party buffets or outdoor entertaining. Made from Japanese stainless steel with a brass riveted walnut handle to be sturdy and durable. Hand wash in warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly.
