Robert Finch – Head Chef

Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Upon arrival, give your new tweezers a thorough wash with warm, soapy water.
- For professional environments, it’s best practice to sterilise them before first use.
- Find a safe home for them in your knife roll or a dedicated utensil holder to protect the delicate tips.
Keeping It Going
- Always clean them promptly after use, especially after contact with acidic ingredients like lemon juice.
- They are dishwasher safe, but a quick hand wash is often best to maintain their pristine condition for longer.
- Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent water spots on the stainless steel.
- Periodically check that the tips remain perfectly aligned for maximum precision.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are these tweezers flexible?
A: They have an engineered 'spring' which gives you great feedback and control, but they are firm and precise, not overly flexible.
Q: Can I use these for removing fish bones?
A: While they are precise, dedicated fish bone tweezers with a wider, flatter tip are specifically designed for that task and will likely perform better.
Q: Are they difficult to clean with the grip pads?
A: Not at all. Because the pads are injected, there are no seams or gaps, making them incredibly easy to wash and keep hygienic.
Q: Is 30cm a good all-round length for professional kitchen tweezers?
A: Yes, 30cm is a very popular and versatile length used by many professional chefs, offering excellent reach without being unwieldy.
Q: Are the tips sharp enough to pierce food?
A: The tips are fine and pointed for precision, but they are not sharp like a needle. They are designed to grip, not pierce.
Q: What is the main benefit of straight tweezers over offset ones?
A: Straight tweezers excel at creating clean, linear patterns and are often preferred for their direct line of sight during placement.
Q: Are these suitable for a home cook?
A: Absolutely! If you're serious about improving your food presentation at home, these are a professional-grade tool that will make a huge impact.
Q: What is the best way to store them?
A: To protect the tips, it's best to store them in a chef's knife roll, a dedicated utensil pot, or a magnetic knife strip.

Explore more from Deglon SabatierWhy Injected Grip Pads Make a Real Difference
You might see other tweezers with rubber sleeves, but Deglon's 'injected pads' are a whole different ball game. So, what does that actually mean for you in the kitchen? Instead of simply wrapping a separate piece of material around the handle, the grip pad is injected directly into the stainless steel arm during manufacturing, fusing the two materials together.
Think of it like this: a rubber sleeve is like putting a case on your phone, whereas an injected pad is like the phone's built-in casing. There are absolutely no gaps, seams, or edges for water and food particles to get trapped in. This makes them far more hygienic and easier to clean properly. It also means the grips will never twist, slip, or peel off, giving you a solid, reliable feel every single time you pick them up.
Who Should Buy This?
- Fine Dining Restaurants: Essential for pastry and line chefs aiming for Michelin-standard presentation and intricate garnishing.
- Gourmet Caterers: Perfect for adding elegant, consistent finishing touches to canapés and buffet dishes at high-end events.
- Ambitious Gastro Pubs: An excellent tool to elevate classic dishes, showing attention to detail that customers notice and appreciate.
