The handle of the kitchen utensil is rearwardly tapering with a generally oval transverse cross-section progressively smaller toward the rear of the handle. The forward end of the handle incorporates a forwardly opening chamber which receives the mounting portion of an implement in seating relation therein, the implement having opposed spring-loaded protuberances engaged through apertures in the chamber wall and retracted only by external manual pressure thereagainst.
