Abstract:
A device that may be attached to the blade of a knife to improve safety. The device has a central juncture and a pair of opposing legs having free ends that extend from the central juncture to define a gap therebetween. The free ends of the opposing legs are held in frictional engagement with each other. The gap is dimensioned to accept the blade of a knife and the central juncture will extends along a plane at right angles to the blade of the knife to accommodate the first phalanx of a human index finger. A cushioning layer is positioned over the central juncture and pair of opposing legs to improve gripping by a user and thus improve safety.
