Pandora, 
 
     I saw your post about one-hand knives.  The best knife for one-hand use 
has never made it into any aids catalogs that I am aware of. This is the 
Alaskan Ulu. It was originally designed by Eskimos for use in skinning seals, 
etc. Shapes like a wide slice of pizza, the curves edge is the cutting surface 
and the handle is on the point of the wedge. This places the hand directly 
over the cutting edge. Cutting is done with a rocking motion. 
 
    Information can be obtained from: The Ulu Factory, P.O. Box 1198, 
Anchorage, Alaska 99510. 
 
All The Best, 
 
Bill
