The Knork is a fairly basic cutlery item--knife meets fork. The Knork obviously spawns from our perpetual laziness and need to do eat dinner while sending SMS messages and emails.
The device is simple. By combining the fork with the knife, your remaining, previously engaged hand, is free to use your mobile device. The Knork is the genius brainchild of the Kansas City, MO company Phantom Enterprises and is available in 18/10 Stainless Steel and plastic versions.
