Maddox Professional Helper Knife

One of my Marine veteran friends lost his right hand, and when he and his wife visited this summer, he showed me this knife when I took them out for steak. While he re-iterated the knife's virtues, which are listed in the description, his wife seemed just as happy that she didn't have to cut his steak, that it fit in any purse or pocket and that it was easily cleaned by hand or in the dishwasher.

So I bought one and sent it to my brother, who'd also lost his right hand. A few months later, they visited, and I took them to Golden Corral, where he delighted in showing me how easily he could cut any food we'd gotten. He even sliced a cherry tomato into quarters very easily with this knife, and they both told me that he'd reached a new level of independence. My brother prefers a Kershaw leach at work (as a farmer), but he flatly refused to use any other knife for dining while he was here.

Fortunately, I've got a lot of veteran friends who visit occasionally. Unfortunately, some of them are now one-handed. Fortunately, I bought a second Maddox rocker knife to keep at my house for their visits. They (and their wives or husbands) have convinced me that this knife is worth every penny and has made a dramatic improvement in their lives.

The Maddox knife fits the bill for my husband who has the use of only one hand due to a stroke. We've bought rocker knives in the past but he couldnt generate enough down-force with them to cut a steak. This knife fixed that problem. He can now cut his own food without help which makes him feel so much more independent. I ended up buying another one and now hubby wants a third.

The knife is well made, very sturdy and quite sharp. You can get a good grip on it and it doesn't require much wrist strength to use. The "sheath" is not what I call a sheath. It only covers one side of the knife. Carrying it in a pocket to and from a restaurant leaves it subject to getting dirty and if you don't clean it at the restaurant, so's your pocket. Carrying it out of your pocket gets you more notice than I want from those who see the blade exposed.
