Can't cut with them

My husband has Parkinson's Disease and I thought these would help him cut things you and I wouldn't need a knife for, but because he is weaker, he does. It says the fork will cut things, but it doesn't work well and is too curved. The knife is not sharp at all. I am disappointed. They are weighted nicely and have a very good surface finish. He isn't using them.
***The fork is designed to be used like a rocker knife, a rocking motion should be used to cut, not a sawing motion, which is why the fork's edges are curved.***
