That's what I was thinking, but ours had holes in it. We called 'em hacks.

Forks are commonly used, but they do have a special tool for it too.
I've never heard of Lefsa before. Looking it up, I gotta say it does look good. (I love anything with potatoes in it)

That is a paddle use during frarernity iniciations...lol !!!

Hey !!! that look like the paddle used by Father Evans from Catholic school. Tell you what that thing has gotten more "you know what" than a toilet seat.

that looks like a paddle that's missing some frat's logo

I don't know, the good nuns back in grade school taught me how to make my own buter and we never used anything like that. The nuns did use something similar to that to keep us straight though! OUCH!
