Abstract From the Canadian patent

An eating utensil for use by the manually impaired is disclosed. An easily grasped utensil handle is provided which may be weighted to enhance the use of the utensil. The handle may carry adjustably positioned rings for supporting the fingers of the user and may be built-up by having a sleeve disposed thereon to further facilitate grasping as may be required. The utensil may be attached to the user or to adjacent structure to prevent it from falling out of reach.
