Cutting is often the hardest part of a meal when grip strength or hand control is limited, and it is usually the first task someone else takes over. The SectorCare Adaptive Knife with Built Up Handle and Strap helps keep that task in the user's hands: a ribbed 3.2cm handle fills the palm, an adjustable strap holds the knife in place so it does not need to be gripped tightly, and a serrated stainless steel blade cuts through meat and vegetables with a simple sawing motion. It supports people with limited hand strength to cut their own food, and gives carers and occupational therapists a practical aid to set up at each meal.
The knife measures 25cm overall, with an 11.6cm serrated blade that is 1.9cm wide and an 11.3cm handle, and weighs 100g. The 1.9cm wide, 20.5cm long strap adjusts through a row of pin holes to suit different palm widths and rotates 360°, so it works with overhand or underhand grips in either the left or right hand. The handle is removable and the knife detaches for cleaning. It is light and compact enough to take along for meals away from home.
With its serrated stainless steel blade, built up ribbed 3.2cm handle, adjustable rotating strap and removable design, this 25cm adaptive knife helps people with limited hand strength cut their own food at home, in aged care and on the go.
