 More than a fish flipperSep 01, 2009
By D. Henderson
While this spatula is shaped and traditionally used to turn fish filets, I've found it to be a good general purpose spatula including for folding omelets. The metal has just the right balance of flex but yet is stiff enough to hold up to heavy meats without bending. The angled and wide shape of the tip plus the length of the spatula all works to make this a better metal spatula than many of the other spatulas I own including the Rosle 12.6" Perforated Angled Spatula.
So far I've used it for cooking omelets, chicken breasts, scallops, and even salmon fillets and this spatula handled every task well with no problems.
PROS:
About the right balance and feel in one's hands making it comfortable to use.
The angled and thin metal blade has the right amount of stiffness and flex to get underneath whatever food you need to turn. The wider tip provides more area for supporting your food item.
CONS:
The plastic handle is not heat resistant (will melt slightly if left on a hot pan).
The spatula does not have a full tang which could add slightly better balance and justify the cost.
Yeah, it is expensive. But I got mine when the Amazon price was about what Cooks Illustrated listed as the cost.
It is designed for a right-handed cook because of the angle of the blade makes it awkward for left-handed cooks. So if you are left handed you may want to consider the Rosle spatula Rosle 12.6" Perforated Angled Spatula.

 Great for all sorts of applicationsMar 03, 2010
By D. S. Wilson
"beaker-san"
We bought this based upon Cooks Illustrated's recommendation as the best fish spatula, and were not disappointed. It is wonderfully thin yet sturdy, and has a sharp leading edge for getting under fish, cookies, whatever. A great addition worth the space in the gadgets drawer. Be aware, though, that the sharpness makes it inappropriate for use with non-stick pans, which it will scratch.

Perfect kitchen tool for a variety of cooking tasksJun 22, 2009
By See Reverse
I originally purchased this slotted spatula as a "fish spatula", but it has worked well as a general purpose spatula (except for non-stick surfaces). My only small gripe is that the black surface on the handle is a plastic with a relatively low melting point - I leaned it against a hot pan and it melted slightly after a few minutes.

 Not up to Wusthof qualityAug 31, 2010
By R. Meyers
I just received this item. But if you are used to the quality of Wusthof knives be prepared for a let down. This is the Gourmet line not the Classic.
Metal portion is a metal stamping with only the front/back surfaces polished. The outside edges and the edges in the slots are still rough. A good place for bacteria to grow.
However, I suspect it will work well.

Wonderful all-purpose spatulaOct 29, 2009
By Anastasiya
I have used this spatula for pancakes, toast, and omelets. It has served me well in all three scenarios. The handle is not heatproof, and for the price, it really should be, thus the four stars.
