A tea needle, also known as a "tea knife," is an important member of Chinese tea utensils. It is specifically used for opening tea cakes, tea bricks, and tuo cha, which are dense compressed teas. During use, gently insert the tea needle into the tea cake and move it up and down until the tea leaves loosen and separate. For the best results, repeat this process from multiple angles until you have the desired amount of tea leaves.
Our tea needle features a solid wood handle, available in either ebony or rosewood. The middle connection is inlaid with copper, and the tip is made of metal. It is comfortable to hold, durable, and long-lasting.
