The Best Pumpkin Carving Tools

There’s a chill in the air, the grocery store shelves are overflowing with candy, and things just feel downright spooky, which can only mean one thing: Halloween is here. And while we love picking out costumes and going trick-or-treating as much as the next person, for us it just doesn’t feel like Halloween until we’ve carved a Jack-o-Lantern. But if you’ve ever tried using a regular kitchen knife to make a creative Jack-o-Lantern, then you know that it’s not just difficult — it can be downright dangerous. Thankfully, there’s a better way. You can make easy Jack-o-Lanterns with the pumpkin carving tools below, which make quick work of what takes seemingly forever when you’re using a steak knife. Grab a few of these pumpkin carving tools, and this year you’ll have the best looking Jack-o-Lanterns in the neighborhood.
