Unless they're carefully made, they're next to useless.
We've got some round steel chopsticks; and the surface is just not matte enough to make them efficient utensils - you try and pick up anything even vaguely oozy and it duly falls off. Apply more pressure and the item in question usually ends up flying somewhere.
Monks vegetables become an exercise in applied frustration; and pickled onions are impossible.
