Abstract (en)
A constructible utensil (1) has a handle (2) and a head (3) of biodegradable wood material. The handle has a slot (17) at its distal end forming a pair of jaws (15, 16) with converge towards a mouth at the distal end of the handle. The head (3) has a slot (34) at its proximal end forming a pair of jaws (32, 33) and these also converge in a similar manner. The handle is planar and has a central through hole (20), and the head has a planar part with a central through hole (35). The user grasps the handle and the head by different hands, mutually rotates the handle and the head about their longitudinal axes, pushes the handle and the head together with the jaws of each engaging opposed surfaces of the other and continues this action until the jaws snap fit in the holes (20, 35) of the other part. The assembled utensil is robust due to the strength of engagement of the handle and the head and that it extends in mutually perpendicular directions.
