With the launching of Haburn Titanium this past year, there have been several products thrown your way. I thought we’d take a moment to review the full line-up and encourage you to consider a titanium spatula for those hard-to-shop for folks on your list!

Fish Titanium Spatula – Offered in flexible fish titanium spatula and further flex titanium spatula, this modern take on the fish spatula excels at light, delicate tasks.

Straight Blade Titanium Spatula – Offered in stiff and semi-flex, in both a standard and BBQ length, the straight blade titanium spatula is a strong default kitchen tool.

Arc Titanium Spatula – Rounded edges make this a nice combination of a standard metal spatula as well as wok spatula. Add the arc titanium spatula to your lineup for any task where those right angles just won’t cut it.

Need an easy but meaningful gift you can give to that special person who is deserving of a personalized treasure? Would you benefit from a batch order of items which are easy to wrap and make a perfect all-around gift? When you gift a Haburn Knives or Haburn Titanium product, be it a titanium spatula or other titanium cookware, you are gifting a product which was thoughtfully designed and manufactured in the USA. The option to customize each one with a name or message of your choosing makes it even more compelling!

Titanium spatulas are the perfect gifts for chefs, kitchen enthusiasts, or the person who ‘has everything’ but loves to show off in the kitchen. Haburn knives and titanium spatulas are in the indoor and outdoor kitchens of home chefs throughout the globe, and the professional kitchens of many more. Don’t miss out spreading the cheer when you stuff your stockings this Christmas!


New Flexible Titanium Spatula

ian rogersComment

The Flexible Titanium Spatula excels at most common kitchen tasks. Small to large fish fillets are two examples of what this titanium spatula is great for. The titanium alloy and design used for this spatula allows medium bends and returns right back to the original shape for years of enjoyment. They will be available with anodized tips and Nebulous heat coloring.

Further Flex Titanium Spatula

The initial release of the Further Flex Titanium Spatula quickly sold out and have just added more to the store.

The ‘Further Flex’ model of the titanium spatula is a version of a fish spatula which, as the name implies, is more flexible.  Why would this be necessary?  I’m glad you asked.  To answer this question we must start with the chickens.  Or… the eggs?

Back in 2023 I completed our chicken coop (Insert photo) and we embarked on a lovely journey of owning various fowl.  It started with guineas, which are an interesting combination of silly and beautiful.  And loud.  The flock of 20 didn’t last through the next spring (various wildlife attacks, followed by a mercy slaughter in early 2024), but beforehand we did get several eggs with notably hard shells.  Nary an abundance, however.

Then we started on chickens.  It took us all of 2024 and into 2025 to learn just how many baby birds to buy, and how often, to keep the hope of a consistent egg-laying pipeline afloat.  By the time we got this strategy down we had slightly overcorrected our original bird problems (of everyone getting murked all the time), and by early spring 2024 we were pulling in 8 beautiful brown ovoid beauties per day.  Egg city!  

It quickly became a priority to figure out what to do with all these things.  With two young children and a new baby on the way, I was determined to get eggs on everyone’s plates.  The answer?  Crepes!   Something neither Megan nor I had ever made from scratch, I found this recipe and whipped it up one Saturday in the blender.  (As you will see in the recipe, the blender is an important part of it).  Titanium cookware (the fish spatula, specifically), immediately became another important part after Megan took the reins on crepe-making.  She is the primary breakfast preparer in our household, and this quickly became a Saturday expectation for our kids. Being the systems-oriented person that she is, she crafted an exact method for making Saturday crepes, which included the use of a Haburn Titanium Further Flex spatula for its thinness and flexibility to bend under such a delicate dish without breaking it.  In this particular case, she desired something that would handle crepes with the necessary finesse, and the further flex spatula became the product she didn’t know she needed.  Laser engraved “Mommy” on the handle, with our three children’s names on the opposite side, she was a thrilled recipient of an even better tool for flipping flat fancy fowl-egg-treats with finesse.  

When all our birds met their sudden demise this past summer (that story is for another) the homegrown eggs came to a grinding halt… but the crepes go on (with store-bought eggs) and the Further Flex titanium spatula reigns as the Saturday morning hero of the Rogers home.

(Bird stories to be continued… And it does get more exciting…)

Due to the superior strength and ductility of titanium as a material, flexibility is possible!  Now, you have options.

Remember:  Titanium cookware makes great chef gifts.  If ‘Gifts for Chefs’ is on your holiday list this year, look no further than Haburn Titanium!  Keep an eye out for the next blog post where we discuss the full line-up of titanium spatulas for stuffing every stocking on your list!

New Arc Titanium Spatula

The Arc Spatula is a combination of my traditional flat blade and a wok spatula. It’s a similar length and width with a curved blade and bevel with a slightly tapered design towards the handle. It excels in a wok and skillet.

New Titanium Spatulas Available November 8th

ian rogersComment

New + 10-year-old titanium spatula. The latest version will be available starting November 8th.


I built my original titanium spatula in March 2014 because I had just broken my second stainless spatula. Unfortunately, there are a lot of janky spatulas available. Titanium seemed an obvious and excellent choice due to its strength and ductility.
My assumptions were correct, and the spatula I built from materials lying around the shop has been used daily by my wife and me for over 10 years. Scraping, flipping, and turning, it excels in all spatula tasks!
For years, my wife has told me to expand beyond kitchen knives and offer titanium spatulas and kitchen tools.  I've taken the same approach here as I attempt do with kitchen knives:  Perfect a product that feels good in the hands, has timeless aesthetics for all kitchens, and, most importantly, functions with superior strength and effectiveness.
Here they are. Thoughtful design for true enthusiasts and meticulous craftsmanship that has come to be associated with Haburn Knives.  Get ahead on your Christmas shopping and buy one for the discerning users in your life today.
