For many older adults, the kitchen is still a place of comfort, routine, and independence. But arthritis, weak grip, limited mobility, and other age-related changes can make meal prep harder than it used to be.
That is where the right tools matter. NULU Knives help make cutting easier for seniors, caregivers, and people with mobility challenges by reducing strain and improving control. When kitchen tools are easier to use, cooking can feel safer, more manageable, and more empowering.

In this episode, Doug Katz and Gordon Downey discuss how engineering and industrial design intersect to create the NULU knife—an adaptive kitchen tool inspired by the traditional ulu. By replacing grip-dependent cutting with a controlled rocking motion, the NULU knife reduces wrist strain and fatigue, making food preparation more accessible for people with arthritis, injuries, or limited hand strength while remaining effective for serious cooks.
NULU’s adaptive kitchen knife is now available through 36 state assistive technology lending libraries, expanding access to hands-on evaluation for individuals with disabilities, older adults, and clinicians nationwide.
