The beech is beautiful to behold and a delight to use because wood is a natural insulator that will never feel cold or hot to your hands. The tongs are 12\" long but weigh only 2.3 oz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause there are no hinges, springs, or crevices, the RAKAU Tongs are very easy to clean in the field. Simply wash with soap and water and let dry. The RAKAU Tongs come with an oil finish from GSI. You can continue to use the tongs in their factory state or oil them further with a food-safe oil like Opinel Maintenance Oil to protect the wood against water intrusion, warping, and food stains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUp to now, GSI Outdoors has been known for making quality utensils out of various plastics. RAKAU is GSI Outdoors' new line of field kitchen utensils made from sustainably sourced woods that are certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

The Fire Tongs are also longer at 16\" to move your hands farther away from the very hot fires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGSI Outdoors Part Number -  46123\u003cbr\u003eUniversal Product Code -  090497461231\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GSI Outdoors","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42091539890218,"sku":"46123","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0626\/5353\/0154\/files\/rakau-tongs.jpg?v=1727301432","url":"https:\/\/expeditionexchange.com\/products\/gsi-outdoors-rakau-tongs-46123","provider":"Expedition Exchange Incorporated","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
