Spoons

D and I are having a rather spirited debate today. I say that long spoons have better stirring torque than standard every day spoons. The ease of stir is very important to me. D likes the stirring control he/she gets from the, average ho-hum, regular spoon. D also adds better sensitivity and lump feel as attributes of the short spoon. I, on the other hand, prefer the superior vibration dampening and increased reach of the long spoon. Lets compare:
regular spoon---------------------------- long spoon
160 mm ----------- overall length---------- 200 mm
105 mm------------ handle -----------------150 mm
55 mm--------------spoon------------------ 50 mm
7 mm--------------- depth------------------ 6.6 mm
36 mm--------------bowl width------------- 32.5 mm
