What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

These soft, ribbed grips slide onto a regular fork, spoon, or knife to make the handle thicker and easier to hold. That can help when a narrow handle is hard to grip or hurts to hold. Each grip is 1.75 inches across and 3 5/8 inches long, and it fits utensils from 1/4 to 1 inch wide. You can use them on toothbrushes, pens, pencils, and crochet hooks or knitting needles too. The set comes with 4 grips and they are dishwasher safe.
