it’s my sister you need to help actually. you like sushi right? of course you do. ok. we do too, so for uni she made some tweezers to eat sushi with, instead of chopsticks, for people who never learned/are too lazy to learn/are just dumb, because there’s lots of people like that. also she needs opinions on them from random people on the internet Log in to see images! they’re made from acrylic. here’s some photos.

It’s a nice idea and you should spread it on the internets. Preferring real chop sticks though, not some plastic pliers. |

Cool idea. I’ve seen similar products but I like how these wrap around your fingers so you don’t keep dropping them. |

im not too keen on the idea that in order to get the piece of sushi into my mouth, both ends of that plastic thing will also be in my mouth and touching my lips and stuff, reminiscient of getting braces |

Dear Bandy, you’re awesome as always Log in to see images!
From designer perspective, I think this is a great idea as well. Here’s a couple thoughts though: 1) I’d make some small “pads” on the bottom side so you can use this thing as a spoon for rice etc. 2) I’d make the whole thing just a tiny bit longer so it would be suitable for nigiri/sashimi/etc as well, and not just small rolls. 3) I dunno if you did that, but on the inside where fingers touch the surface you could treat it, make some small pins or rows to make surface less slippery (it’s acrylic after all) 4) Peregrine is right about the taste of plastic. I’m afraid within this price category this problem can’t be resolved. But if you got a few extra bucks, how about making the endings ceramic or maybe even wooden? (could be replaceable/disposable) 5) I like color scheme, black/white/red is a typical Japanese and all, but this type of product would be much more user-friendly if you’d introduce a bigger variety of some nice and bright colors. Orange? Acid green? Light blue? |

This, but make them adjustable for 1/2 if possible.
Cool idea. |

This is a good idea. I would buy those. Is there a version of those where you can hold it sideways? The nerd o powa edited this message on 04/12/2011 9:17PM |

its not really that bad of an idea for kids but chopsticks are really not that hard to use and you can learn in seriously two minutes just google it or something itll make youre lifes a lot easier |

How flexible is it? It looks like it is fairly solid and wouldn’t accommodate a larger piece of sushi.
It’s a neat thought, but I don’t know that they would be terribly popular with adults. Is it likely that people who don’t go the chopstick route will go out of their way to get a special utensil?
Flip side, I can see it going over quite well as a sort of training device for kids. It looks like a stabbing/pinching toy, so I think the kids would like it. Log in to see images!
Completely unhelpful comment: These actually look like something I used to put my hair up with. |
