This section includes utensils to assist with food preparation.
Table top equipment usually has a slip-resistant base or is clamped to a table edge, so that the task can be carried out one-handed. Some equipment may have a container in which to collect prepared food.
Handheld equipment may have enhanced grip such as a swivel action or handles which can enhance and facilitate grip.
Serving utensils and knives and forks for carving or food preparation may have angled handles, a choice of right or left handed design, or a two-handed design. Some have rocker blades, contoured handles in a range of materials, and may be lightweight.
Some equipment may have features that could assist blind and partially sighted users, or may be available in colours that may help people with memory loss. Some is designed to prepare specific types of food such as cheese, or fruit and vegetables.
