  • Such a holding device enables the positioning of a piece of cutlery such as, in particular, a fork or a spoon, but also a knife in the best possible adaptation for the special case of the disability, and also the change in the positioning during use, which is particularly useful in the case of a fork significantly improved. But even in the case of a knife, for example, it can be very useful if the knife can be adjusted in different positions or angular positions around its longitudinal axis relative to the fixed hand clip or arm clip.
