Enkay 355-4P 4 pc. Spatula Set, poly bag

I got this set just to have a little variety of metal spatulas, primarily for depotting makeup and cosmetic mixing purposes. It made more sense to spend $5 on 4 instead of $10 for a single name brand spatula. These are just as shown, solid quality although they may bend around the edges depending on how much stress is applied. They're generally made for wax carving and little craft things, I suppose. NOT dental tools. Made in India.

It was cheap so you get what you pay for. Once I received it I sharpened the edges up so that when I was using them to shape wax they would make straight lines.

As with many other tools, once you own this spatula set, myriad "off-label" applications become evident. Given the bargain price and excellent value, virtually any tinkerer or hobbyist would benefit from owning these. The quality of manufacturing is excellent. While I am not using the set for pharmaceutical applications, the spatulas appear to be of sufficient quality for a laboratory.My particular applications include using the spatulas for manipulating and cleaning miniature electronics and mechanical contraptions. In one recent endeavor, I needed to carefully press a smooth probe covered with a lens cloth onto a rotating color wheel of a DLP projector. The curved spatula (with triangular opposing end) was ideal for applying force at the correct angle. Other spatulas have proven to be perfect for prying open tiny enclosures or snap electronic connectors. Overall, this set avails the user of capabilities where Q-tips, X-Acto knives or even dental probes are unable to meet particular force or rigidity requirements.

I did not buy these for use in dentistry, nor would I want them anywhere near my mouth. They are cheap. Some of the edges are too sharp and others rough. This set comes in a plastic pouch with slots for each tool. The tools with the sharp and/or pointed edges sliced and/or pierced the plastic and made sizable holes...the pouch is not suitable to house this set;;do not count on using it to store the set. Amazon wrapped it in many layers of cellophane for shipping. These are not professional grade tools. These might be suitable for crafts depending on the type of craft. Not suitable for use by children. Made in India.

What arrives is not what is pictured. It's petty, yet a case to hold them in so they don't lay loose in the tool box would of been nice.

The metal is soft and the instruments are sloppily shaped and finished so consider these disposable. The edges are too thick for shaping small details in clay. Spend the money on something other than these if tools are important to you.
