Works well. Sturdy.
I recently switched to a yogurt-based, low-cholesterol "butter" spread (it's actually really tasty) and had been wanting a special spreader for it. Actually, I had been wanting one of these palette-knife cake decorating looking spreaders for some time. I checked the measurements, and the 4.25" length looked like it would work best for my needs.And it has really worked great. It's obviously well made, and not flimsy. I had no problem removing the sticker from the blade- I just peeled it up very slowly, and it came off cleanly in one piece. If you have problems with the sticker I would get a single-sided razor blade or a scraper with one of those blades in it, and scrape the sticker off as best you can, and then put it in a shallow pan, add some water, and boil the water. Keep an eye on it. It should take about five minutes and the glue will break down and get very stringy and can be wiped off. You can repeat the boiling step if the blade still has residue. My mom used to do this with stubborn stickers on cookware, and it works well. Just remember to watch the pot, so the water doesn't boil away. Also obviously wash everything really well to get rid of any adhesive in the pot or on the spreader.It spreads everything really well- my fake butter, real butter, jam, preserves, chunky stuff, smooth stuff like mayo. I use it a lot when making a sandwich. It's a great all-purpose tool I find myself reaching for often. I only wish I had ordered it a lot longer time ago! Recommended.
