Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

What's the point of the rotation adjustment on the knife? Adds complexity and cleaning challenge for seemingly little gain. Might be good for one hander I suppose, but unless knife is really sharp you generally benefit from stabilizing what you are cutting with a fork (for two handers at least.)

I don't think that's a rotational adjustment. I think that's to allow the blade to be removed for sharpening.

Possibly, but actually seems like it might be easier to sharpen in situ and especially if it was forged into the design instead of screwed in. Maybe it's just a tinkeres' mod aka a prototype rather than a final design.

How is it even possible to cut something with the blade without having to cut it with the fork first?
