Getting ingredients to move properly in a wok depends more on your tools than most people realise, and a spatula with the wrong angle makes every flip feel like a battle. The School of Wok stainless steel spatula is shaped so the head sits at the right pitch for working inside a wok, letting you get underneath ingredients cleanly and turn them without losing anything over the side. It's made from stainless steel throughout, so it handles high heat without warping and goes straight in the dishwasher when you're done. Part of the School of Wok collection developed by Dexam with Jeremy Pang, it's a tool that reflects how Chinese cooking actually works rather than being adapted from something designed for a flat pan.
- Stainless steel construction: Made from stainless steel throughout, this spatula is robust, resistant to corrosion, and built to cope with the high temperatures involved in wok cooking.
- Angled head for wok use: The head is designed at an angle that makes it easier to get underneath ingredients and flip or turn them cleanly when working in a wok or frying pan.
- Dishwasher safe: The all-stainless construction means this spatula can go straight in the dishwasher after cooking, with no special treatment needed.
- Comfort grip handle: The handle is shaped for a comfortable, secure hold when you're moving quickly at high heat, giving you better control over what you're cooking.
- Hanging loop for storage: A loop built into the end of the handle lets you hang the spatula on a hook or rail within easy reach of the hob.
What Customers Ask About This Product
Can I use this spatula with a non-stick wok or pan?
Dexam recommend this spatula for use with uncoated carbon steel woks. Stainless steel utensils can scratch non-stick surfaces, so if you have a coated pan it's worth checking the manufacturer's guidance before using metal tools with it.
Is this spatula suitable for use on a standard frying pan?
Yes, it works well in a regular frying pan as well as a wok. The angled head is well suited to getting underneath eggs, fish, or vegetables on a flat surface, though it's designed primarily with wok cooking in mind.
How big is the spatula?
It's 36.5cm in total length and 9.5cm wide at the head, with a head depth of 6.8cm. That's a practical size for most home woks and frying pans.
Does this come with a guarantee?
Yes, this spatula comes with a 2-year manufacturer's guarantee from Dexam.
In our experience...
The angle of a wok spatula is what separates it from a regular turner. A standard kitchen spatula is designed to slide under food on a flat surface. A wok spatula has its head tilted to follow the curve of the bowl, so you can scoop from the bottom and toss upward in a single motion rather than pushing food sideways.
Stainless steel is the right material for high-heat cooking. Wok cooking happens at temperatures that would degrade silicone or warp plastic over time. Stainless steel holds its shape, transfers no flavour, and does not react with acidic sauces or marinades.
You use a wok spatula differently from a flat turner. In a wok, the spatula works more like a shovel than a flipper. You push it along the base, scoop under the ingredients, and lift them in an arc. That motion requires a longer handle and a more angled head than a standard spatula provides.
Metal utensils and carbon steel woks are designed to go together. Carbon steel woks have no non-stick coating to protect, so using metal utensils is not just acceptable but expected. Over time, the seasoning on a carbon steel wok actually benefits from regular use, including contact with metal tools.
A spatula that goes in the dishwasher is easier to maintain properly. Tools that require hand washing sometimes get left to soak or put away slightly damp, which causes deterioration over time. An all-stainless spatula removes that issue entirely and stays in good condition with minimal effort.
