KITCHENDAO Tongs for Cooking with Silicone Tips 12 Inch, One-handed for Convenience, Soft-touch Handle, Silicone Tipped Stainless Steel Kitchen Food Grill BBQ Tongs for Non-stick Cookware Air Fryer

once I finally figured out the lock feature... these are well made and have a good silicon tip

Quality materials but not good for people with older hands to hold - too heavy!

What did I like or dislike? The fact that you demand that I write something on a good but otherwise unremarkable set of tongs.

These tongs are solid! I love everything about them and have used them maybe half dozen times since receiving them.I do have my concerns about the clicker lock on the end lasting... its more complex than the usual kind where you pull the end out to lock, and push it in to unlock (after squeezing a bit to take pressure off the mechanism). These ones is a click in for both lock and unlock... similar to the button in a ball point pen. Time will tell whether it lasts or not.Anyway, these were easy a 5 star product until the bit me tonight. And they bit my finger HARD! Not sure how I was holding it much different than other times, but at the hinge (as shown on my picture), is something close to a pair of scissors or wire cutter! The metal itself isn't sharp, but the 2 pieces are very close, and the way the edge is cut, a gap opens as pictured. It's been an unlucky night and my ring finger and pinky both got pinched separately while preparing the same dish. It was enough to draw blood on the ine finger, and give a nasty blood blister on the other.I'll try to find a better way to hold them... maybe my dish was hotter than usual so I held my hand back further than usual. I dunno... but the warning is there and I'm sure some minor tweaks on the engineering could widen the metal to prevent the center gap from opening when tongs are opened all the way.Like I said... all other aspects are awesome and these are very solid.(And for what it's worth, I tend to ignore reviews like this thinking it was user error and it wouldn't happen to me... hopefully this doesn't happen to any of you... but know the risk is there and the amount of leverage you get at that point of pinch is very significant!)

I like the fact that I can close or open these tongs with one hand.
