Oddly enough, I could not find a description of a sterling Corn Butterer and never having had one at my plate when served corn, I had no personal experience. However after looking at it, I assume that one would put butter in it and then use it to rub on an ear of corn. Actually, it could come in as a handy piece, expensive, but handy.

Lovely. Can you please digress and inform us on the corn kernel splitter? How is the corn fork used and why are there no corn spoons? Well, least I haven't been able to find any corn spoons.
