Self-righting handheld utensil
A self-righting handheld utensil comprises a weighted base having a generally rounded bottom end, an elongated region extending outwardly from the base, and a use portion. The base, by virtue of its generally rounded bottom and mass, provide for a self-righting function for the disclosed utensil such that, when placed on a flat or substantially flat surface, it counterbalances the utensil to an upright vertical orientation without the need for user intervention or the application of any external force. The base need not become uncoupled from the elongated region and use portion before the user makes operative use of the disclosed utensil. The bottom end of the base may comprise one of several structural embodiments that retain the self-righting function of the utensil.
