Maybe you, or Charlie, could bend them to be more closed? Unless they’re stainless steel, I suspect that whatever plating is on them would crack and peel, so maybe not a great idea.
I tried to bend them but when I did, the spacing between them wasn't even on both sides so I bent them back. Since I don't really have anything to lose, I could try again. When I ordered them, I looked for ones like i remembered but didn't see any. PS wouldn't you know? When I looked again just now, I did see some but they didn't have handles so I'd need to use tongs to take them out. Considering how much oil it takes to submerge them, I will just stick to frying them flat.
