## Description

desertcart.com: GSI Outdoors Pivot Tongs, 8 in, Folding Camp Cooking Tongs, Orange : Sports & Outdoors

Review: Great foldable tongs for camping - Used these on my last trip, and it really helped with cooking. The whole spatula/spoon thing wasn't working as well, so grabbed these. They were super helpful in the kitchen. They don't fold as compact as you would think, but they are lightweight, easy to clean, and worked great. For my overland rig, don't really care that they aren't as compact, as I have some storage room. As always, GSI gear is always good stuff, and have yet to have any issues with any of their products. Always feel confident when purchasing their gear.
Review: Complete the kitchen set GSI offers by purchasing these tongs. - Complete the kitchen set GSI offers by purchasing these tongs. It's not my idea, I read it in someone else's comments. I am glad I did because I found I used them as much as any other part of the kitchen set. Full disclosure though, I use tongs a lot when cooking every day stuff around the house, especially on the grill (which is where I tested these). I am camping in the upcoming weekend, so I will test them over my campfire and update if I have any additional issues or comments. Pros: They are very versatile. I used them for flipping a burger and stirring some hash browns around. Lightweight, so the tongs are prefect if you are carrying your stuff (backcountry). Cons: They add cost to your kitchen set, I wish they were included. They are a tad flimsy, they have to be because they are light weight. Most of us aren't cooking a 22 oz sirloin on our campfire (at least I'm not) so they are functional.
