Made in China. But hefty. Soft-grip feature feels like plastic. Have yet to hear back as to whether they are dishwasher safe. The large tongs are definitely the highlight of the group. Will try and post some pictures tomorrow. Also picked up the Ti-coated charcoal and wood chip/chunk tongs (marked as not dishwasher safe). Will be trying out the fork, spatula and both tongs tomorrow ;D
Made in China, knowing how lax their laws are about lead and other toxins and it's not a big name company that "should" check for such I'll refrain. Good luck.

I am banking on the three Michelin stars of Blumenthal to carry weight with respect to QC (for better or worse). Solid bars of steel with plastic grip cutouts. They really are nice to hold.

But it is all about the cooking tongs. Sturdy springs...
