 pitchfork ice pick
 this is my preferred tool for hand
 shaping ice for cocktails behind the bar
 if you want to do custom made cubes or
 scoring large blocks of ice
 instead of using a single ice pick to
 hold something where something could
 spin and rotate around
 the pitch fork holds everything in place
 because it&amp;#39;s in line
 and you can actually get softer rounder
 edges than using a specific

 i started using the cocktail kingdom
 pitchfork ice pick a few years ago
 when i stodged at the aviary in chicago
 a very very useful tool
 so that you do not have to use your bare

 i would recommend the pitchfork ice pick
 for
 seasoned professionals at any cocktail
 bar where you get your ice
 in large blocks or you need to hand
 carve ice for specific cocktails behind
 your bar
 the pitchfork also works very very well
 for at home use
