Cauterizing iron
After the tail of draft horses has been cut with a docking iron, the wound
is burned with a cauterizing iron. To stop the bleeding, the heated iron is
pressed against the wound with the ring-shaped end for 8-10 seconds so that
it fits over the slight bulge of the tailbone. If necessary, this operation
is repeated until no more blood escapes. [MOT]

Carved wooden cookie mould
Wooden board with one or more carved figures - such as a drunkard, jester,
Saint Nicholas, etc. The dimensions vary from 10 to 75 cm. First, the mould
is sprinkled with rice flour or brushed with oil and then the dough is
firmly pressed into the mould, cut and beaten to be able to bake it in the
oven. The result is a gingerbread cookie, called 'speculaas' in the low
countries, or a brown, very chewy cake of rye flour and syrup. [MOT]

Carving fork
When you pre-cut a large piece of meat with a carving knife, you can hold
that meat with a carving fork. It has fairly long (approx. 7-10 cm) -
usually three - sturdy teeth and a handle made of plastic, wood, stag horn,
stainless steel, silver or ivory. Between the blade and handle there is
usually a bumper to protect the hand if the knife should slip; often there
is also a folding stick so that the fork does not penetrate too deep into
the meat. See also carving tongs. [MOT]
