I wouldn't say freaks, but I think most people who cook have
favorite tools in many categories.

Just ask people to recommend their favorite potato peeler
or can opener if you want to start WWIII.

My favorite spatula is http://tinyurl.com/yd7lqlr
This one is from Sur la Table and I love it.

I also love what used to be called a Japanese cookie
spatula that is useful for many jobs. It's one piece with
about a 4" square blade and slightly offset tapered handle.
