Winco Stainless Steel Dough Scraper with Wood Handle

My husband said this is very handy and works great.

Winco DSC-3 Dough Scraper w Wood Handle I dont buy much of anything, but when I do, I research the hell out of it to make sure I'm getting the highest quality product and something that's going to last for many many years, never to be replaced. In looking for a dough scraper, I wanted a wood handle, not a stainless handle, and not a rubberized/plastic/nylon/poly handle. There's just something natural and grounding about the wood. Yes, this scraper is made in China, and yes, I usually try to stay away from such things bc they tend to break or fall apart and cannot be repaired. But made of little more than a strip of wood and a sheet of stainless, I couldnt be happier with this scraper. It's much nicer and heavier duty than I was expecting and I love the heft to it. The long edge of the exposed stainless is 5 7/8" long by just shy of 3" wide and the handle adds another 1 5/16" to the short edge width of it. The steel's a solid 1mm thick and the rivets appear to be stainless. My scraper did NOT have an irremovable sticker on the blade as some other reviewers have said, though there was some sort of cloudy residue all over the blade and handle (it's not oil...I dont know what it is) but nothing a little soapy water won't fix. And the blade edge is flat and square. Some other reviewers seem to be looking for a beveled/sharpened edge. This is a /scraper/. You could use it to cut marshmallows or soaps or probably even root veg if you dont mind a little bruising, but for you ppl out there looking for a quick option to dice up some onions or mince a bit of parsley, buy a damn knife. Before ordering, I was deciding between this scraper, a similar wood-handled scraper for half the price and rubberized plastic-handled scraper with a ruler printed on the blade (from a popular, reputable manufacturer) for twice the price. I didnt think I'd care for the plastic handle or the extra cost, and I didnt want to risk dissatisfaction with the low-cost scraper. All in all, I couldnt be happier with this one. tldr: This scraper's much nicer, heavier duty, and more durable than I expected and I highly recommend this solid and affordable option. (and if China lets me down and the rivets snap or the wood splits or whatever, I'll be sure to update the post.)

It really holds up. Don’t get anything plastic. This dough scraper has helped me make excellent, flaky pie crusts and shaped many dough balls. 10/10 would recommend

Edit: after just a few weeks, this tool has loosened a bit from its handle, and the finish is just about gone from the handle. So there is some compromise in quality — but I still think it’s well worth the price of $7-8 that it cost. Will give it a few coats of polyurethane and call it a day. Original review: What can I say, except that this simple tool as so far exceeded all expectations. The wood handle is of the perfect heft and curve to handle with ease. The blade is substantial and of a perfect size for cutting, moving or scraping all over the kitchen. My favorite use for it -- that oddly comforting ability to scrape away all those dried little bits of stuff on the counters you find when running your hand over it (a pet peeve of mine). It powers right through everything without leaving either residue or so much as a scratch. Just scrape it down and give it a quick sanitizing wipe, and you're good to go. And it does a tip top job of cutting bread dough and such, too! :)

Just what I needed to work with all kinds of dough.

This was the cheapest option I could find for a scraper like this. Initially, I was a little disappointed that the handle didn't feel super premium-- kinda soft and rough. Even so, it was the cheapest option I could find, so it definitely was not a return. However, to my surprise, I've been using it regularly for a couple months and it's held up just fine. No tarnishes to the stainless steel, and if anything the wood part has somehow cured and doesn't feel as low quality as I initially thought. Or maybe I've just gotten used to it. Aside from aesthetics, I don't see any reason to spend more for a "nicer" one. Lastly, guys, this is actually an essential kitchen item that I don't feel like enough people use. If you're using your knife to scrape your cutting board, get one of these. It works better and it'll save your knife. Like when you've chopped a bunch of veggies and need to dump them in a pot.

I love to make bread or and to work with dough. I noticed that many bakers do use a similar tool while making bread so I decided to indulge and get one. So why I am only giving it three stars then? It is because it does not satisfy any of my needs in fact. As you can see in the description, it is called a dough scraper. I have some silicone dough scrapers that are working much better because they are rounded and will follow the contours of my large bowls much more efficiently. Also, my kitchen counter (in an apartment rental) has a vinyl that is imitating granite and the scraper, if made of metal will damage it. Last, it is not sharp enough to be able to cut my dough in smaller pieces. So in the end, I still use my silicone scrapers and a sharp knife to cut the dough so the metal dough scraper is left unused in one of my drawers. I may use it more efficiently some day if I manage to get a real marble or granite counter... Edit 5/10/2020 I did not give up with it since I keep on baking bread at home. I revised my rating to 5 stars because my criticism for the cutting part was finally unfounded. It is not a knife but with a good handling, one can slice bread dough easily. I also use it now to recover most of the dry flour from my countertop, prior to wash it. With a proper angle, no scratch on the countertop. I eventually also love the handling and the size of it which is perfect for a good grip. I still use my silicone scrapers to remove the dough from the round containers, no change here.

Well made, strong sturdy with a good shape in the hand. We have many uses, for this. Bread makeing, scraping the Blackstone. Stainless steel, this is our second purpose so we have one in the RV also.
