I claim: 1. A utensil for cutting and serving a piece of pastry or similar goods in an upright position by a one hand operation, comprising: a first and a second operating handle connected at a pivot; a cutting blade for cutting the piece connected to the first operating handle wherein pivoting the first and second operating handles causes actuation of the blade; and a serving mechanism connected to the second operating handle, said serving mechanism further comprising: a spatula; a pusher plate; and a pantographic linkage mounted between a forward end connected to the pusher plate and a rearward end such that extension of the linkage causes relative movement of the forward and rearward ends such that extension of the linkage causes relative movement of the forward and rearward ends away from each other and causes movement of the pusher plate in a direction of the spatula away from the direction of the pivot whereas contraction of the linkage causes relative movement of the forward and rearward ends toward each other and retracts the pusher plate toward the pivot; wherein the pantographic linkage is actuated by movement of the first and second operating handles relative to each other. 2. The utensil of claim 1, further comprising: a first finger tab formed in the first operating handle; and a second finger tab formed in the second operating handle; wherein the first and second finger tabs allow the utensil to be operated by at least two fingers of a user's hand. 3. The utensil of claim 2, wherein the cutting blade has three sides. 4. A utensil for cutting and serving a piece of pastry or similar goods in an upright position by a one hand operation, comprising: a first and a second operating handle connected at a pivot; a cutting blade for cutting the piece connected to the first operating handle; and a serving mechanism connected to the second operating handle, further comprising: a spatula; a pusher plate; and a pantographic linkage connected to the pusher plate at a forward end of the pantographic linkage mechanism; wherein the pantographic linkage is actuated by movement of the first and second operating handles relative to each other, said pantographic linkage mechanism moving the pusher plate outwardly away from the direction of the pivot in the direction of the forward end when the pantographic linkage mechanism is actuated into an extension mode from an aggregated position and moving the pusher plate inwardly toward the direction of the pivot when the pantographic linkage mechanism is retracted into the aggregated position; and wherein movement of the first and second operating handles away from each other causes the cutting blade to move away from the spatula. 5. The utensil of claim 4, further comprising: a first finger tab formed in the first operating handle; and a second finger tab formed in the second operating handle; wherein the first and second finger tabs allow the utensil to be operated by at least two fingers of a user's hand. 6. The utensil of claim 4, wherein the cutting blade has three sides.
