A handheld tool includes a handle; an implement mount configured to detachably accept and to rigidly hold a user-assistive implement; an actuator assembly mounted to the handle to physically manipulate the implement mount relative to the handle; a first sensor disposed to sense an orientation of the handle; a second sensor disposed to sense an orientation of the user-assistive implement; a controller disposed in or on the handle and coupled to the actuator assembly and the first and second sensors; and memory coupled to the controller. The memory stores instructions for identifying a type of the user-assistive implement attached to the implement mount, selecting a behavior routine based upon the type of the user-assistive implement identified, and manipulating the user-assistive implement relative to the handle according to the behavior routine to aid performance of a task with the handheld tool.

A system and method for meeting market demand for better constructible utensils. A deformable sheet defines a handle and an operational element in which one or more scores, both straight and curved, are cooperatively provided on the sheet. The one or more scores enable deformation of the handle and/or operational element(s) to convert the structure into a strong, sturdy, and functional implement sufficient to meet the required application.

In some embodiments, a mess kit includes a container assembly having a lid portion and a container, each of the lid portion and container including handle portions having apertures that align when the lid portion is connected to the container. In some embodiments, a tether device is provided to connect the lid portion to the container, as well as to releasably connect one or more utensil devices, or utensil assemblies to the container assembly. Also, the utensil assembly can include a first utensil and second utensil connectable together in a first mode, and second mode, with each mode of connection involving inserting a portion of the first utensil into a sheath member of the second utensil.

A production method of edible biodegradable tableware uses a powder mixture to manufacture an edible biodegradable product by a manufacturing process, and the powder mixture includes a dry powder and a maltose, and the maltose is prepared according to the total weight of the dry powder in a ratio of 1:10˜100, and the production method has the effects of improving product stability, simplifying production process, increasing yield and efficiency, avoiding pollutions during production, and decomposing the used product in various environments.

A clandestine articulating utensil includes a body portion and a head portion, the body portion having a proximal end and a distal end opposite the proximal end. The head portion includes a lower jaw member fixedly attached to and extending away from the proximal end of the body portion and an upper jaw member pivotally coupled to the lower jaw member and having a neck section extending upwardly from a back of the upper jaw member. The upper jaw is movable between a closed configuration parallel and adjacent to the lower member and an open configuration angularly displaced from the lower jaw member. The clandestine articulating utensil includes a utensil coupled to and extending away from the distal end of the body member.
