Reddit mentions of Rösle Stainless Steel Basting Spoon, 12.4-inch

So, a crappy basting spoon is pretty much just a shallow spoon like you'd use to sample soup. Here's a fancy basting spoon that still doesn't compare.

The reason ours is so good is it has just the right shape that exists nowhere else (we've looked everywhere, every store, the manufacturer doesn't exist anymore). It has a flat edge at the front that's strong enough to scrape like a spatula. It can serve soup. Stir anything you would make in a frying pan. It's made of rigid nylon that's flexible enough to bend how you need it but strong enough to scrape or cut things as you cook. It has a cornered edge on each side for scooping things out of the edges of jars or anything. It's pretty much the only spoon I use when cooking and since there is no other spoon out there like it I would never leave it.

We've thought about starting a company to make clones of these basting spoons. I don't know what the market is like for spoons, but it sounds like a weird thing to get into. It's weird how this spoon is so good. It's hard to explain :)
