Abstract
A collapsible wire whisk including a handle and wire basket. The wire basket comprises a plurality of wires that are coupled to a wire holder slidably and twistably mounted within the handle. The handle is hollow and has a proximal end with two arcuate apertures through which the wires may be inserted. The wire holder is a hollow cylinder that has a plurality of holes circumferentially positioned on each end. Each end of each wire of the wire basket is threaded through one of the holes on each end of the wire holder. The wires are crimped both above and below the wire holder to keep the wire basket coupled to the wire holder, but the wires remain free to be twisted.
