When to choose it
The selected Bates blade gives a ten-inch working width. Use that dimension to compare the clearance around a seam. This version uses blue steel, with a dark blade and a black-and-yellow handle shown in the photo.
Compare the ten-inch stainless edition if you want to hold the width constant while changing blade material. Follow the guidance for the specific metal and check that the working edge clears your pan opening.

Questions about this product
How can I tell it from the stainless version?
Check the exact material in the title and the selected variant. Both versions list a ten-inch working edge.
Would a twelve-inch edge be easier to use here?
Compare the available clearance. A longer edge gives broader contact when there is room to keep it on the work.
Does ten inches tell me the handle length?
It gives the working blade width. The handle and overall length are separate measurements.
