Cooking Utensils: Here are offered a complete set of those homely items so necessary
for the preparation of food in large quantities so as to feed large numbers of soldiers in
the field. The items shown here are full-size, with the long handles needed for keeping
hands away from the heat of the campfire. Every one is copied from originals and every one
is completely hand-forged by an expert blacksmith. All of them are about the same overall
length, the spatula measuring 20 1/2". The neat, very 18th century curl on the end of
each is used for hanging them on the display bar. When used with my iron kettles and
tripod, these will create a very authentic impression of what cooking was like 200 years
ago.
