We propose a toast.
Sometimes, looks can be deceiving, e.g. this tiny, walnut-handled stainless steel spreader with multiple tricks up its sleeve. It can transform hard, cold butter into golden ribbons that’ll melt right on your morning english muffin, no problem. Wanna give your scones a cute little curl of butter? Use the tip of the blade at a 45 degree angle and you’ll have a fancy topping in seconds (oh hey, it works on cream cheese too!)

Meet the Maker
Microplane
Arkansas, USA
It all started in 1994 with an orange cake. Frustrated by her clunky grater, the baker snagged one of her husband’s prized woodworking tools and...presto! Recognized the world over for their original photo-etching technology (read: ultra-sharp graters), Microplane makes all their products in the USA from surgical-grade steel. That means they're built to last, well, for more citrus cakes than you can shake a zester at.

Not so great
Normally I love all your products but not so much this one.. You have to hold the stick of butter with something else to make it work so it is awkward.
