What cooking equipment have you hauled home?

What (exotic) cooking equipment have you hauled home from your travels?

For me:

3 granite mortar & pestles from Bangkok (cheapest at Central dept. store).

Le Creuset cast iron and nonstick frypans from outlet in Connecticut (in handcarry, no less)

Le Creuset crepe pan from near-ish CDG. Just EUR 21 (which is a fraction of the U.S. price)

WMF knives and other cutting instruments from Germany, Vienna and Amsterdam (favorite cookware shop on Beethovenstraat, Amsterdam alas is no longer there). The piece I use most (other than the normal kitchen knives) is a Henckel Zwilling salmon filleting knife.

Clay moussaka pots from Luxor, Egypt. Really had to bargain for them too.
