Yoshikawa 89035-9 Eatco Nulu Butter Spreader, Silver

I first came across this butter spreader at Japan House in Kensington and loved its sleek, minimalist design. It looked beautifully made, and I thought it would be a useful addition to my kitchen. However, after ordering it on Amazon and using it a handful of times, it’s now found its way to the back of my utensil drawer. While it certainly looks great, it doesn’t perform as well as I’d hoped. I can draw the butter easily enough, but actually spreading it onto bread is quite difficult — which rather defeats the purpose. In short, it’s a lovely-looking product, but unfortunately it doesn’t deliver on function.

I bought it to make it easier to spread butter from a block. Sadly it does the opposite. It's easier to use a normal knife.

Great product that helps soften straight from the fridge butter, gets a good spread on toast.

RAD

This tool/knife makes thin noodle like shaving of butter which spread and melt easily on my toast. Does what it does well and it looks good too! Most importantly, it's made in Japan and not China so no worries on the actually metal use to made this. I had too many nasty surprises with Made in China garbage so I always go out of my way to buy non-China made items especially on something I use with my food.

Easy to use and very smooth

I skeptical at first. Thinking this is some sort of gimmick but after using for 2 weeks, I love this little butter spreader. It does everything with ease and very cool item to display on you kitchen dinning counter.
