According to the theory of Black body Radiation Goood Absorbers are good emitters too and Poor absorbers are the poor emitters too" .This fundamental principle is applied in case of the utensils used for cooking. The handle on one hand absorbs heat much readily and loses it readily also.so the handle becomes cool quickly.
Why not?
Style. Handles are made of many different materials. I have utensils with metal, plastic, and wood handles. You really just need a handle to insulate your hands from the heat of the pot or whatever it is you’re cooking. The color really doesn’t make a big difference.
Because black doesn’t show dirt.
because it is good absorber of all radiations and it absorbs all the infrared radiations emiting from it and thus remain cool for easy handling
