Woodworker John Danicic is the maker of the versatile Stirsby utensil, individually handmade from fine hardwoods at his Edina, MN shop. “My daughter, who was 5 at the time, thought up the name,” says John, of the tool that is designed to stir and scrape more comfortably than a wooden spoon. The Stirsby is finished with food-safe butcher block oil.
