Jeff Young Spatula

Here's a small size spatula made by Jeffery Young from Beaver, Pennsylvania. With a 2-1/2" wide blade and measuring 8-1/2" overall, it's about half-size or even a little smaller that a full-sized, forged spatula. Jeff basically developed it after a friend bragged about turning corn cakes with a spatula from a toy set. He then asked Jeff to make one that was stylistically correct to the 18th century. I thought this was a pretty cool piece and have used it at several camps. This appeared in "Prime Possibles" in the Mar/Apl 2004 issue.
