Christopher Kimball for Kuhn Rikon Spider Skimmer

Constructed of durable stainless steel, its large wire basket is hand-woven in a spider design that enables you to retrieve and quickly drain everything from large stuffed pastas to items as small as a pea. The signature open handle design allows for easy hanging.
