How thick is the edge on the turner's head? I'm looking for something thin to pick up fragile cookies, etc.

Like everyone else, I agree that it is a good tool to have around. I found on amazon a set of two spatula's that would work well. I am traveling, so I can describe only. They are red, thin and not for heavy jobs. I found them when looking for pancake turners. The smaller of the two would work well to turn cookies. The other is huge but works well for my pancakes.

I love this turner. It is great, heavy duty etc etc. But one of the cookies I made I could not get them up with this spatula. So this may not work for what you want.

Hello I would think that it's a little too thick for fragile things . An excellent kitchen tool for nearly everything !!! I suggest using a silicone cooking sheet . Everything slides off of ours . Good luck

It does come to a point, but it's quite thick and sticky. I haven't had any success in getting cookies off a baking sheet with it. I use a very thin silicone with stainless handle turner from Miu (France) that works well for delicate cookies. I can't remember where I got it.

Type in miu France in the search box. There are several ones which work well.

This one has a thick edge and a sharp bevel to even thicker main surface; it's great for heavy items. I have 4 or 5 spatulas and this is the one I would definitely NOT use for cookies. I was going to recommend a different one, but when I went to my order for the Zyliss Silicone Slotted Turner it is currently unavailable and unknown if it will be carried again. I specifically mentioned the flexible edge on that one (which is thin as well as flexible), so it would work great for something fragile if you want to look for it elsewhere.

I'm not sure what the actual degree of thinness is, the dial doesn't have settings of dimension. You can dial it thin enough for French dip beef.

I think it would be too big for cookie dough, and since I've never made biscuits, I probably shouldn't answer that. It seems that it would be a better size for biscuits than cookies. It is awesome for cutting through hard ice cream though! Sorry I couldn't be more helpful!

I don't find the handle thin, but they are different in that they are rounded rather than flat handles like most cutlery. Bigger hands! Hmm I can't answer that! I'm happy I bought them. They are unusual and I'm drawn to things that are different.

not too thick...maybe 1/8" thickest: it has a couple of adjustments for thickness. The thinnest is VERY thin.

I honestly can't say, yet. I used it to slice & core some granny smith apples, twice, to sauté in a bit of butter & cinnamon sugar. It was automatically perfect for my task, so I haven't tried to adjust. The slices were maybe 3/8" thick.

The thickest point is like 2mm!!! very sturdy knife and keeps an edge for a long time.

I'd say it's pretty thick but you can remove as much buckwheat from the pillow as you like....so you can make it as thin as you like!

Here's what I said in my review, "It may be thin relative to a standard king size pillow but is not even close to being really thin. " This is as thin a foam pillow I've found but it's still too thick for me. If anyone knows of one thinner, please reply to this query and let everyone know... Thanks

It's not huge. The cookie would fit on a 3x 5 card. (it's about that big) It was big enough for me to frost and stripe with ease!

The raised edge other than the end, is no more than 1/4". It's good for baking cookies, biscuits, etc. Is not good for cakes or brownies. No edge to hold the batter.

Probably around an inch and a half or so. They make an edger blade that's about a quarter inch in width usually used to do designs on the side of the head.

The edge touches nothing. The magnets cling to the side of the knife. The edge is inside which is very safe for anybody reaching for it, or brushing by it. The magnets are nice and strong. We actually love the one we got. It was well worth the price.

The blade is very thick not super sharp. I'm not sure if it's fragile, we haven't used it yet.

I don't have an instrument that could measure such a small thickness accurately. It needs some clearance, but not a lot. It seems as thick as 2 credit cards. That still allows it to be pretty strong, as it is steel. I have had mine for almost 2 years, and it's still like new.

about 5cm, if you buy it for your kid who can craw already, it might be a little small, you may need to buy at least two...but the thick i think is ok

The long side is about 5.2 inches, it's thicker so it's not uncomfortable for your hand, the curved part it the bowl scraper and it's sharper, I mistakenly bought it to scrape the bench so I've never even used it so I can't speak to it's usefulness.
