A few years back, I built a collection of newly-manufactured, retro-form pocket knives from Queen Steel's Schatt and Morgan label -- among the styles I liked were "Doctor's Knives," or "Pillbusters," so-called because they featured a flat bolster on the back, suitable for crushing a pill into powder, and usually a long, spatula-shaped blade for counting pills. Never thought I'd actually use one of them, but here it is, pressed into service for counting out 10 4-mg decadron tablets every morning.
