A grinder having a lid and a container. The container has an interior surface defining a cavity, and at least one container tooth extending outward from the interior surface into the cavity. The container tooth extends across at least a portion of the interior surface from adjacent a center portion of the interior surface to adjacent a peripheral edge of the interior surface. The lid has a lower surface that is configured to be at least partially received within the cavity. The lid includes at least one lid tooth that extends outward from the lower surface. The lid tooth extends across at least a portion of the lower surface from adjacent a center portion of the lower surface to adjacent a peripheral edge of the lower surface.

One feature pertains to cutters that include a first lever, a second lever having a bottom edge, and a cutting lever having a top edge. A first member rotatably couples the first lever to the second lever, a second member couples the cutting lever to the first lever and/or the second lever, where the second member provides a pivot for the cutting lever to rotate relative to the second lever. A means for rotating the cutting lever relative to the second lever to move the top edge toward or away from the bottom edge when the first lever's first end is moved relative to the second lever's first end is provided, where the first lever, the second lever, and the cutting lever are arranged in a side-by-side configuration such that each has a longitudinal axis that is parallel to each other when the cutters are in a closed position.

A glove for facilitating grasping a fish while scaling, gutting, cleaning, and cutting the fish. The glove has four elongated finger portions and an elongated thumb portion extending from a palm region. A plurality of fish scaling blades is disposed on several outer surface of the glove. The glove is typically formed from a material typically having a roughened texture and is impervious to the fish cleaning by-products such as fish entrails, fish scales, and the like. An opening allows access of a hand of a wearer to a hollow interior portion and to fingers and the thumb. An optional flashlight and/or sharpening stone may be attached to the glove.

The present application discloses apparatuses with deployable probes and blades and exemplary methods of use. In one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, an exemplary handheld apparatus for probing and cutting is provided. Such an exemplary handheld apparatus includes an elongate member having a probe and a blade associated with a first end thereof. The probe comprises a target interaction surface and is selectively movable between a retracted state and a target acquisition state. The blade comprises a cutting edge and is selectively movable between a retracted position and an extended position. The handheld apparatus may additionally include a handle associated with the second end of the elongate member that is operably connected to the probe and the blade. In some embodiments, the disclosed handheld apparatus is sized and shaped for use in endoscopic surgeries.
