Chopping food can be a difficult affair and the Easy-Cut Knife hopes to simplify tough to slice produce with a dual-handed blade design. The knife is specially formatted with a plastic handle along a thicker spine that is designed to allow consumers to add pressure to the top of the knife. The embedded handle is engineered to hold the weight of an extra hand to apply to pressure downwards without compromising the utensil.
Cutting with two hands is a practice many consumers already do, though many kitchen blades are not properly designed to carry the added weight and so they often break or bend. The Easy-Cut Knife is engineered to do just that with a thicker and longer blade shaped more like a mallet. The top portion of the spine is coated with a plastic sleeve to hold the weight and allow users to apply more pressure when slicing.

Trend Themes
1. Dual-handed Blade Design - This trend in kitchen utensils allows for better control and increased force when slicing, improving efficiency in food preparation.
2. Reinforced Knife Blades - This trend in kitchen knives aims to prevent breakage and bending when pressure is applied, enhancing durability and longevity.
3. Enhanced Pressure Application - This trend enables users to exert greater force while slicing, resulting in smoother and more precise cuts.
Industry Implications
1. Kitchen Utensils - This industry can explore the production of dual-handed knives with reinforced blades to meet the demand for improved slicing experiences.
2. Cookware and Cutlery - This industry can incorporate enhanced pressure application features in their product lines, offering chef-grade tools for easier and more efficient food preparation.
3. Food Service Equipment - This industry can leverage dual-handed blade designs to develop commercial-grade knives that prioritize control and force during food preparation.
