The 18 utensils are selling online as well as in brick-and-mortar stores; all of them are available at American Hospitality Supply (a sampling is shown above) and many are also being tested in Bed Bath &amp; Beyond stores! In addition, select items are on the shelves of Keystone Housewares, a specialty store in Central PA.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/swingers_canopener.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-4396\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/swingers_canopener-195x300.jpg\" alt=\"davison products\" width=\"195\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>The line offers the convenience of full-size utensils but they take up much less storage space \u2013 and who couldn\u2019t use more storage space in their kitchen!? Most of the utensils open and close via a hidden locking mechanism and can be used with handles folded or extended; when extended, they lock securely in place, and then unlock with the push of a button. The innovative products started with a single spatula design with XHP. Then Focus, XHP\u2019s parent company, got involved and the product was expanded into an entire line. The collaboration involved all three companies, with the design and brainstorming led by Davison&#8217;s corporate design team.<\/p>\n<p>All the products are highly innovative, but two of the \u201cneatest ones of the whole group\u201d are among the newest to hit the market \u2013 the can opener and cork screw, said Jason, the design manager. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/products\/product_swingers_canopener.html\">Swingers Can Opener <\/a>has an ergonomic grip and an offset crank, which adds \u201ca lot more leverage\u201d to the tool, so it\u2019s much easier to use than standard can openers. The crank folds up compactly into the tool, so it also saves on space.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/swingers_corkscrew.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-4397\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/06\/swingers_corkscrew-187x300.jpg\" alt=\"kitchen gadgets\" width=\"187\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>Most corkscrews are\u00a0bulky,\u00a0a pain to store and take\u00a0up a lot of space in the\u00a0kitchen drawers, said the design manager. Not this one. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.davison.com\/products\/product_swingers_corkscrew.html\">Swingers Corkscrew <\/a>is sleek, with an ergonomic grip, a safely retracted screw, and handles that are flush with the body when not in use. The eye-catching tool, which resembles a human figure, can even be stored standing on a shelf, Jason said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s cool enough; it looks neat and has a nice design.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Consumers are sure to agree!
