This fruit knife by Kuhn Rikon makes its purpose quite clear. The 'Strawberry Knife' is a multi-purpose tool that is specifically designed to cut strawberries. In addition to making the task easier, the entire blade mimics the appearance of this cute red fruit.
The non-stick carbon steel blade used for slicing is colored green and the berry-red handle features the same dimples as a real strawberry. One final touch Rikon used was to make the scoop on the end of this tool used to hull strawberries look like the leaves that top this fruit.
Just like a real strawberry, this knife is cute and compact -- it is able to fold up when not in use. This all-in-one strawberry slicer is an adorable and practical way to prepare this delicious summer fruit with ease.
