For years I have used a palette knife used for mixing and painting with any
artist media. You will find it in the art section of any art/craft store.
They have a handle and a flexible blade that does not have a cutting edge on
it. I have had the same one for years. If you have a heavy workload,

If you put a piece of paper towel in the bottom of the "drip catcher" you
just change that and it makes it much easier.

Re: [Histonet] kni
Actually we have a ParaTrimmer too - it was not that expensive and we love it.
We paid @ $500 for ours and I see the they are a bit more expensive now - list
price anyway.
To solve the drip problem I put one of the tops from the boxes of pipette tips
under the ledge and it catches all the drips.
Don't look in a catalog - go to Target or WalMart and look on the wall with
kitchen gadgets. It will be much cheaper.

Hi,
