The paddle is wider and better for scraping parchment and spreading soft dabs. Many dabbers keep both. If you run mostly shatter and want precision, start with this flat tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I use it to clean my banger?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, that's one of its strengths. Once your banger has cooled to a warm, not hot, temperature, the flat blade scrapes hardened residue off the dish walls and corners. Follow up with an alcohol-soaked cotton swab for a spotless finish. Never scrape a fully hot banger, since that risks burns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy bamboo instead of an all-metal handle?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBamboo stays cool in your hand, so you're not gripping hot metal near a torched banger, and it gives a warmer, more comfortable feel. It's also lightweight and durable. The trade-off is that wood shouldn't be soaked, so you wipe the handle clean rather than submerging the whole tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow long does shipping take?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost orders leave our warehouse within 1-2 business days.
