To Keep the Finger Out of Finger Food, Inventors Seek a Better Bagel Cutter


NORTHAMPTON, Mass. -- "On a Sunday morning, not entirely awake, I decided it was a good day for a bagel," Howard Rose said. "It turned out not to be a good day for handling a knife."

Mr. Rose, an audio engineer, was at the Bruegger's bagel place in this New England town, recalling how he joined the ever-expanding ranks of BRI victims. A BRI is a bagel-related injury.

After slicing a finger instead of the bagel (a Band-Aid took care of it), he signed up with another crowd: those who attempt to build bagel-control devices. "I made a bagel vise from two chunks of wood," said Mr. Rose. "The prototype was OK. I never followed up."
