Awesome tongs, truly heavy duty!

Awesome tongs, truly heavy duty!
I often take a while to review products, I like to test out items thoroughly before leaving feedback. These tongs have truly earned 5 stars, & then some.When I first received these, my first thought was "Woah, they're heavy, yay!" Husband said they were exactly like the tongs chefs used in the restaurants that he worked at- tongs that would get thrown across the room, hit the wall, get a rinse & go right back to work without a flaw. I believe it.They are sturdy, have a solid grip, are easy to handle & keep closed around objects, are proven durable, gorgeous, & so daggum useful. I've used them to pick up cast iron pans out of fires, turn coals over, flip foil packages, turn sausages without tearing the casing, spin pizza pans in my conventional oven, fish out bones from stock pots before filtering the liquid, & whatever else comes to mind where I want to reach something hot.They keep a firm grip on food without being destructive, they are easy to handle, easy to clean. I store them on a hook on my wall, they cannot fit in my over-stuffed drawers & utensil barrels, but that's not a problem at all for me. After months of hard use, they still look & act like brand new. 100% satisfied with these & would highly recommend them.

5.0 out of 5 stars NO LOCK, SIMPLE SOLUTION… PROBLEM SOLVED
Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2021
Very nice long stainless steel heavy duty tongs, perfect to barbeque with. A lot of people complain about the tongs not having a locking mechanism.

Well here’s a simple fix. You’ll need a nice thick wire/rod (a heavy duty hanger would work). If you can get a stainless steel wire/rod even better. Then you’ll need some heavy duty wire cutters, nippers work great. Cut the wire/rod and bend with pliers into a rectangular shape around the bottom of the tongs. You’ll want the rectangular piece of wire/rod to be kept close to the bottom of the tongs metal (so it doesn’t pass the rivet, the rivet keeps the rectangular piece from sliding off the tong).

When you slide the rectangular piece down to the rivet (it shouldn’t fall off) and the tongs will open fully. When you slide the rectangular piece up (around the middle of the tongs) the tongs will stay closed. Problem solved!

5.0 out of 5 stars No más quemaduras de mano
Reviewed in Mexico on May 6, 2021
Con una novia regia no hay forma de que te escapes de la carnita asada, y siempre me estaba quemando, porque usaba unas pinzas de las regulares, con estas pinzas he evitado las quemaduras y el agarre es fenomenal, no se resbala la carne, ni te quemas las manos. Pará lavar es fácil pero siempre es recomendable hacerlo inmediatamente después de su uso para evitar que la grasa se solidifique. Excelente tamaño
