Oh, smaaart. I am always frustrated when I have to put my tools down, because guarantee they will end up in a puddle of something yucky. It really creates chaos during prepping, doesn't it? These were designed to stand while cooking (not necessarily for storing, but you can if you feel the desire to). The fat handles are probably much more ergonomic and comfortable. I never did understand skinny handles for kitchen tools. Can't really grasp them well.

Ack! So cool! Kitchen tools that won't fall down on the job. In fact, they stand all on their own! What great design!
