Richardson Products Inc. Able Grip 8" Adaptive Rocker Knife

Richardson Products Inc. 847102021263 Details

Allow for autonomy in your assisted living facility, nursing home, or hospital with this Richardson Products Inc. able grip 8" adaptive rocker knife. This 8" long knife features a 1 1/2" wide grip handle that is intended to help individuals living with Parkinson's, arthritis, hand tremors, or any other cause of poor grip strength. By having a wide grip this utensil requires less gripping power than traditional flatware, and since the handle has a plastic coating it is also easier for patients to maintain their grip when tremors or spasms do occur. It is non-weighted but heavier than traditional silverware for extra stability during use. The end of the handle even has a hanging hole for efficient storage and drying when it is not in use!

This knife boasts a mirror polished finish and is ideal for use serving main entrees at your facility. The blade is designed with smooth edges to prevent accidental injuries and cuts using a rocking motion rather than by slicing. Ribs on the handle allow it to align perfectly with the inside of both palms, making it ideal for both right and left handed individuals. Dishwasher safe up to 125 degrees Fahrenheit, this knife is designed to improve dexterity and control while providing users with added independence, making mealtimes easier for both staff and residents.
