Spoocark
Jiddnick Rebenkkack is a Gnomish inventor that has created many useful things but the Spoocark was created out of need. Jiddnick’s wife, Slynkam, had recently passed on and he was losing himself in his work. Dishes and utensils used just piled up in his sink. So, he cleaned all the dishes and the house and put everything up for sale. Once the house sold he moved only his necessities to his workshop, fashioned himself a metal tray to eat from and invented the Spoocark with which to eat. Spoocark is a silly name that only a Gnome would come up with. Imagine calling a spoon, knife and fork a Spoocark. Jiddnick has a sense of humor.
According to Jiddnick the spoocark can be useful in other situations. For instance, say you get caught in a mine that collapses that spoon can be used to dig your way out. Get grabbed by a cyclops? Scoop its eye out. Of course, it you keep it shiny clean you can use it as a mirror to shave by.
Now, take that knife, it has an extremely sharp edge with a blunt nose. The blunt nosed end makes a good stand-in for a screwdriver. That sharp edge can be used as a slashing tool, a tool for whittling wood or a razor. Now before you point out that the spoon is already serving as a mirror, don’t sweat the details.
In addition, with the option of adding a set of rings along the outer edge you get a nice set of brass knuckles. Or, add a corkscrew and you can open a wine bottle anytime or anywhere.
But that’s not all, for 3sp more, we will throw in a second spoocark. If you don’t think you need a second one a friend will appreciate the gift.
