Product Description
These flat, extra-wide skewers look cool and work even better. Ground lamb and chunks of beef, pork, fish, even wet vegetables, like tomatoes and mushrooms, won't slip or spin, as they do on conventional slender metal skewers. All stainless steel.

 Very good skewers. September 13, 2008
I'm glad I bought these skewers, they are as-advertised and I expect to get many uses out of them for years to come.
They are sturdy and flat, so it is easy to turn them over without the meat spinning around. We made delicious lamb and chicken kebabs with these. One thing to keep in mind: we did end up buying bamboo skewers for our vegetable kebabs, because these are so wide that the smaller mushrooms and cherry tomatoes I had would've split in two if I tried to thread them on the metal skewers.
 Skewer Review August 28, 2008

While there is no doubt that this is a quality item, I found them to be much too long and unwieldy. They are huge and would only work well on the largest of grills.
I also found them to be difficult to skewer anything with. They are very wide (I know there are narrower ones) but any vegetable I tried to put on them (onions, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers) split almost every time no matter how careful I was.
So I guess if you have a large grill and want to skewer large firm items such as beef or swordfish, they would be great although still difficult to manuever.
 stainless steel ? barbecue skewers July 18, 2008

The actual skewer is wonderful to use, keeping the meat and veggies from moving around. However, after putting them in the dishwasher to clean they came out with rust on them, so are they actually stainless steel. I recommend hand washing.
Good product but the edge is too sharp that it cut your fingers May 27, 2008

Solid skewer. Good quality for the money. However, the pointy edge is razor sharp. I actually cut my index finger trying to skewered the meat. I know it's me being careless, but the damage would have been less had the edge not be this sharp. As my finger still hurts badly after 3 days, overall not such a great product.
Good stuff October 5, 2007
Those are excellent skewers. They are perfectly wide to prevent pieces of meat from spinning. The only 'grief' I have, I would not mind for them to be a just bit longer.
