Description
A metal bench/dough scraper with a wooden handle. The metal portion is slightly curved to be wider at the bottom than the top, and the metal is tapered at the bottom so that it is relatively sharp. The wooden handle is joined to the metal blade by two thin pieces of metal so that there is a space between the handle and the metal for the user's hand. The wooden handle is round.
History
A bench scraper is useful for cutting and dividing food like dough, and for scraping and cleaning off kitchen surfaces.
