    That’s the entire reason I use a wine bucket to house big utensils. I used a wide thin grill spatula and all of my patience opening that drawer.

    The bucket is slightly bigger around and slightly taller than a cookie jar. It works great.

      It used to work great in the old days. Now every utensil needs to have a bulky handle, and I’ve accumulated too many, so there’s just no room in that bucket

        That sucks and I hate that for you. And I know how hard it is to throw them out because the second you do you know you’ll need it before you get a replacement.

      We use a combination of a tall vase for the big top heavy stuff and an old Jaegermeister ice bucket that came free with something decades ago. Nestled within each other. Holds all of the bigger cooking utensils like spatulas, spoons, tongs, etc.
