$38.00 for a mixing bowl ... yikes!  OTHO, if it's what you want, go for it.  I've made some Yikesworthy purchases and loved every one of 'em.

good points.

 

however , in the video , the corners don't seem to bother that chef.

 

Ive plenty of rounded bot0m SS bowls .  though Id try one of these.

 

after all , the design seems to be popular in France.

 

but the price , probably for a small bowl , doesn't seem to be worth it.

Nice !  

 

Im guessing that version  is  not from  FR and

no matter .   you're pics suggest the bottom reflection w the side might b e curved !

 

items like these are items one might acquire for their ' feel '  , which adds to their price.

 

some times significantly

 

an apro : CuisiPro  has sets of measuring spoons , and measuring cups

they certainly cost quite a bit more than when I got them way back when 

 

the differential back then was not so bad.

 

pleased I got them

 

back then

@rotuts you might check to see if there are any Chinese restaurant suppliers in your area. The one that I used to go to had metal bowls from 4 in to 40 in and they were quite reasonable in price (in fact just plain cheap) and the quality was good. I also got some double-sided thermal metal bowls that were great for salads or anything that you wanted to mix that you wanted to keep cold. Just pop them in the freezer for 20 minutes and they were cold for almost 2 hours. That Chinese supplier was always my first go to for kitchenware because their prices were about half of what you would pay anywhere else.

except for here :

and many other places in the video .

 

can't say what he paid for them 

 

and , I myself have some very special knives 

 

Ive worked up to them over 50 years 

 

and taken care of each group before these

 

I had not thought of my current Watanabe's

 

dd.thumb.jpg.e84f4c7d8466eaa0cca61fb5cf7e918c.jpg

 

as a conceit .

 

but I can now see them viewed that way 

 

if all there was to them was their price .

Personally I love this shape and find it very practical for most things. My only regret is not getting 1 or 2 more sizes. Ordering from Paris was easy btw for anyone tempted to do it.
