About this product

Who this is for

Best for someone whose hands or wrists no longer do what a normal knife and fork ask of them. Arthritis, tremor, a stroke, or reduced movement on one side.

What it does for you

The spoon, teaspoon and fork have shafts you can bend to any angle, so the cutlery adapts to your wrist rather than the other way round. The knife has a curved blade and cuts by rocking rather than sawing, which needs far less strength and works one handed. All four have soft ribbed grips.

Why we love it

The rocker knife is the piece that changes a meal. Cutting food is where most people quietly ask for help, and rocking through it one handed hands the meal back.

Common questions

How does a rocker knife work?

The blade is curved. You rest it on the food and rock it rather than sawing back and forth, so it cuts with weight instead of strength, and one hand is enough.

Can the handles really be bent?

The spoon, teaspoon and fork have bendable shafts. Set the angle once for the hand that will use it. They are not meant to be rebent constantly, around twenty times is the limit.

Can I buy the pieces separately?

This is sold as the kit. If you only need a better grip on cutlery you already own, the universal built up handle does that for less.

What people say about SteadWell

These are reviews of our service, not of this product.

  • Ordered the rollator for my mum after she had a fall. I had a couple of questions before ordering because I wasn't sure which one would suit her best, and Bianca was really helpful. She got back to me quickly and answered everything clearly, which made the whole process much easier.

    Delivery was fast as well, and I got updates along the way so I always knew when it was due to arrive. With everything else we were dealing with at the time, that was one less thing to think about.

    Really happy with the service overall and wouldn't hesitate to buy from SteadWell again.

    Hi Jane, thank you for taking the time to write this. Choosing a rollator for someone else is genuinely hard, especially when you're sorting out everything else at the same time. I'm glad the questions helped you feel sure about the one you picked. I hope your mum is getting on well with it. If the handle height ever needs adjusting as she settles into it, or anything else comes up, just get in touch.
