Abstract

See full text

A utensil system for ergonomically cooperating with a person's hand includes a scoop utensil with a forward scoop, a central portion generally triangular shaped in cross-section, and a rear portion. A knife utensil comprises a forward blade and a bulbous grip fixed with the forward blade and adapted for holding in the person's palm. When the knife utensil and the scoop utensil are reversely oriented in a nested configuration, the bulbous grip of the knife utensil fits within the forward scoop of the scoop utensil, and the rear portion of the scoop utensil fits around the forward blade of the knife utensil. A second scoop utensil being a mirror image of the scoop utensil may be fixed with the knife utensil in the nested configuration simultaneously with the scoop utensil. The scoop utensils and knife utensil, when all forwardly aligned and magnetically attached, may assume a presentation configuration.
