Trying to find a new one on line all I could find was a picture on
Google with the caption "Antique cooking implement"
Makes me feel old.

PS I don't like the "plastic things.



There are a number of good bamboo spatulas on the market and I suggest
you have a look. They are very strong and also wash well in a
dishwasher, which some of the older thinish wood ones didn't. I use
them all the time now.

My old one was a very thin metal one, and I do mean thin.


That sounds more like a Palette Knife.



The nearest I can find is a fish slice.




Have a Google on "flexible metal spatula". It will have to be fairly
thin to be flexible. Good luck.


I did spend an hour or two on-line last night looking the best seem to
be on Amazon but in the US of A and I'm not paying around £15.00 +
almost £10 postage.
Found one I really liked in UK but it was tangled up on the web page
with a summer frock so I couldn't find the price, but I have ordered a
stainless steel one for around £5.00 inc postage so I will see what it's
like, It's already been sent.
Thanks for all the ideas folks.
By the way Martin I tried your link but it didn't open for me.
