I just wanted to know if anybody knows of specific kitchen utensil brands that're actually worth buying long-term. Or atleast which ones should be avoided.

I've wasted time checking reviews for various sets and always find concerning ones between the positives.
I really just need a Spoon, Slotted Spoon, (Flexible) Spatula, and Kitchen Tongs.
A Deep Soup Ladle, Whisk, and Pasta Server would just be convenient.
I don't expect a set to have a solid cheese grater, so I'll be buying that separately by default.

Preferences:
I'm trying to avoid exposed metal on the head of the utensils since I'd worry about scratching my pots and pans. Other than that, I've got no preference beyond "non putting toxins or its broken off material in my food". ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿฟโ€โ™‚๏ธ

If this post doesn't work out, I'll just start checking reviews for specific utensils. ๐Ÿ˜‘

The Fully Metal Ones

That's the important part there. I have an older set of OXO tongs and the clip that holds it closed was made of plastic and eventually broke off. The OXO tongs I have that are all metal have that clip also made of metal and they've been rock solid.
