==================================

Due to the gol dang Lipitor I take so I can keep eatiing at least a
little butter etc. I have a grapefruit knife that isn't getting any
use. It's one of those two ended things a wicked scythe-like serrated
on both sides curved knife on one end which carves the grapefruit half
away from the rind and on the other end a double tined thing with
about an eighth of an inch opening between the serrated tines for
cutting the fruit section away from the membrane, Any one have an
alternate use for this thing?
