Please Help Me Repair My Old Spatula
I have the exact same spatula. Picked it up at an antique market.

Of the three different spatula that I have, this one is my favorite.

This is the most bizarre thread I've read here in awhile.
Vintage Spatulas? Spatula City? Scales for spatulas?
Oh my.

I think I'll retreat back to the cheese knife thread.

Buy some black epoxy, mix up a small cup and dunk the end of the spatula in it and let it harden. When set, sand, grind or file, all that isn't supposed to be there. Drill a new hole for hanging if you need it.

That's what I was thinking, only I would go with a red epoxy to give the handle a little zing


Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice - pull down your pants and slide on the ice.

Not a bad idea. I might do that if I don’t replace the handle. Thanks.

I inherited my grandmothers US made steel spatulas and meat forks etc that have almost identical handles. One came loose like that in almost the exact same spot and I had the broken piece and gorilla glued it back together and clamped for a few days. Good as new and the seam is not visible unless you are looking for it. I hand wash them as well as extra care. When my mom and aunt were cleaning out their marital home of 70+ years for sale, the 4 grandkids were allowed to take just about whatever they wanted, the rest was sold at estate sale. I grabbed up several pieces of the kitchen ware. Using them Reminds me of sitting in her kitchen while she cooked all kinds of amazing things. My cousin got her 1 cast iron pan that was the staple of about half her cooking.

The stuff that greatest generation was able to buy is great. All U. S. made and good for daily use for many decades.
