We had wanted to name it the T-Rex grip, but sadly that alternative grip required more fingers to manipulate than T-Rex had claws. As you know, most dinosaurs had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livescience.com\/12808-dinosaur-hands-fingers-birds-digits-evolution.html\">only three claws<\/a> in their forelimbs, corresponding to our thumb, index finger and middle finger. And the T-Rex, as a special case, counted <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amnh.org\/explore\/news-blogs\/on-exhibit-posts\/t-rex-third-claw\">just two claws<\/a> in each of its forelimb.

In the Dino Claws picture shown on the left, however, the thumb has shifted its location. It now sits right on top of the purlicue. This shift in thumb position is needed, in order to create some distance between the index finger and the thumb base, for leverage. It makes for a suboptimal 1-on-2-support, because the thumb isn&#8217;t sitting at the center between the two bottom supports. This thumb shift requires that Dino Claws users uncurl their palm, in order to extend chopstick tips, giving the posture a Dino look. In comparison, Standard Grip calls for the palm to be curled as if holding a golf ball, throughout the alternating motion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks-Dino-Claws-vs-Chicken-Claws-vs-Standard-Grip-Open-posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks-Dino-Claws-vs-Chicken-Claws-vs-Standard-Grip-Open-posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD-1024x250.png\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - Dino Claws vs Chicken Claws vs Standard Grip-Open posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD\" class=\"wp-image-1529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks-Dino-Claws-vs-Chicken-Claws-vs-Standard-Grip-Open-posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD-1024x250.png 1024w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks-Dino-Claws-vs-Chicken-Claws-vs-Standard-Grip-Open-posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD-300x73.png 300w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks-Dino-Claws-vs-Chicken-Claws-vs-Standard-Grip-Open-posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD-768x188.png 768w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks-Dino-Claws-vs-Chicken-Claws-vs-Standard-Grip-Open-posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD-1536x375.png 1536w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks-Dino-Claws-vs-Chicken-Claws-vs-Standard-Grip-Open-posture-IMG_3737_IMG_6882_IMG_7430_FRD-2048x500.png 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Dino Claws (left) vs Chicken Claws (middle) vs Standard Grip (right) &#8211; open posture<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The comparison between these three types at the closed posture is shown again below.

Examine the alternating motion shown in the video clips below, with slow motion on the left, and regular speed on the right. While snapping at the air, under no load, this Dino Claws user leaves the index finger on the top chopstick. Also, under no load, the bottom chopstick is left &#8220;dangling&#8221; lose. This is evident from how the ring finger slides easily past the bottom chopstick during the alternating motion. It indicates that the 1-on-2-support isn&#8217;t actually in use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Alternating-motion3-snapping-air-with-chopsticks-slowmo-IMG_7850-320x546-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Alternating-motion3-snapping-air-with-chopsticks-slowmo-IMG_7850-320x546-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 11-Dino Claws Grip-Alternating motion3-snapping air with chopsticks-slowmo-IMG_7850 320x546 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-1534\" width=\"160\" height=\"273\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Slow motion<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Alternating-motion3-snapping-air-with-chopsticks-normal-speed-IMG_7850-436x744-15fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Alternating-motion3-snapping-air-with-chopsticks-normal-speed-IMG_7850-436x744-15fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 11-Dino Claws Grip-Alternating motion3-snapping air with chopsticks-normal speed-IMG_7850 436x744 15fps\" class=\"wp-image-1535\" width=\"160\" height=\"273\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Alternating motion<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Dino_Claws_vs_Dangling_Stick\"><\/span>Dino Claws vs. Dangling Stick<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The bottom chopstick is often caged between the thumb and the purlicue, and left dangling &#8211; a hallmark of Dino Claws&#8217; sibling grip, the <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-dangling-stick-grip\/\">Dangling Stick<\/a> grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Alternating-motion3-snapping-air-with-chopsticks-slowmo-IMG_7850-320x546-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Alternating-motion3-snapping-air-with-chopsticks-slowmo-IMG_7850-320x546-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 11-Dino Claws Grip-Alternating motion3-snapping air with chopsticks-slowmo-IMG_7850 320x546 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-1534\" width=\"160\" height=\"273\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Dino Claws<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-9-Dangling-Stick-Grip-style1-index-base-away-from-stick-alternating-motion-snapping-air-slomo-IMG_3728-480x588-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-9-Dangling-Stick-Grip-style1-index-base-away-from-stick-alternating-motion-snapping-air-slomo-IMG_3728-480x588-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 9-Dangling Stick Grip-style1-index base away from stick-alternating motion-snapping air-slomo-IMG_3728 480x588 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-1589\" width=\"224\" height=\"280\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Dangling Stick<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>So, only three fingers are needed for Dino Claws, after all, for manipulation of the top chopstick.

As a result, when tips of sticks are extended apart, the rear ends also separate. The two sticks are said to be crossed, in both recorded videos. Tips of chopsticks separate and come together left to right, seen from the point of view of the recording observer. But that is where similarities end. Note how the Dino Claws video is shot from a top-down angle, while the Chicken Claws video is shot from the side. In Dino Claws, the two sticks move in a different plane, compared to Chicken Claws. Seen from the user of Dino Claws herself, the sticks move from side to side. On the other hand, the user of Chicken Claws sees the sticks move up and down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This difference in the plane of movement can perhaps be best explained by exaggerated extensions of chopsticks shown below. When challenged to reproduce the exaggerated extension of sticks (below right), the user of Dino Claws demonstrated how she achieved an extension angle of over 90\u00b0 (below left).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Extending-chopsticks-wide-apart-with-opening-of-90-degrees-slomo-IMG_7859-532x518-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Extending-chopsticks-wide-apart-with-opening-of-90-degrees-slomo-IMG_7859-532x518-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 11-Dino Claws Grip-Extending chopsticks wide apart with opening of 90 degrees-slomo-IMG_7859 532x518 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-1542\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Dino Claws extending apart over 90\u00b0<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Twirling-both-chopsticks-Snapping-air-with-max-wide-open-angle-IMG_7432-640x519-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Twirling-both-chopsticks-Snapping-air-with-max-wide-open-angle-IMG_7432-640x519-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - Twirling both chopsticks - snapping air with max wide-open angle - IMG_7432 640x519 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-868\" width=\"290\" height=\"240\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Standard Grip extending tips apart<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_issues\"><\/span>Common issues<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One common issue Dino Claws encounters is again illustrated by an exaggerated example. The video below shows one botched attempt to bring chopsticks together, after extending them wide apart. Follow the bottom chopstick as it swings back towards the top chopstick. Notice how it bumps into the ring finger. In usual eating situations, this happens less often, as sticks are not extended this far apart normally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Common-issues1-bottom-stick-collides-with-fingers-upon-closing-from-extended-opening-of-90-degrees-slomo-IMG_7859-480x467-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Common-issues1-bottom-stick-collides-with-fingers-upon-closing-from-extended-opening-of-90-degrees-slomo-IMG_7859-480x467-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 11-Dino Claws Grip-Common issues1-bottom stick collides with fingers upon closing from extended opening of 90 degrees-slomo-IMG_7859 480x467 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-1545\" width=\"240\" height=\"234\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Bottom stick collides with ring finger<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The main challenge facing users of Dino Claws is that this grip offers very little leverage. One reason for the lack of leverage is mechanical. The main force for closing sticks come from the base of the thumb. It pushes sticks against the purlicue, at exactly where the pivot of these sticks are. Another reason is that this grip closes in on food items while chopsticks form an outward extending angle, allowing food items to slip away. On the other hand, many other grips, such as the Standard Grip, close in on regular food items with an inward angle, effectively pinching said food items in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Frees-index-finger-for-better-compression-when-picking-up-real-food-slomo-IMG_3737-320x310-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/User-11-Dino-Claws-Grip-Frees-index-finger-for-better-compression-when-picking-up-real-food-slomo-IMG_3737-320x310-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 11-Dino Claws Grip-Frees index finger for better compression when picking up real food-slomo-IMG_3737 320x310 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-1523\" width=\"250\" height=\"233\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Dino Claws dropping food<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks_Normal-open-vs-closed-range-standard-grip_IMG_7431-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks_Normal-open-vs-closed-range-standard-grip_IMG_7431-1024x698.jpg\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - Normal open vs closed range - standard grip - The Closed Posture\" class=\"wp-image-1546\" width=\"354\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks_Normal-open-vs-closed-range-standard-grip_IMG_7431-1024x698.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks_Normal-open-vs-closed-range-standard-grip_IMG_7431-300x204.jpg 300w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks_Normal-open-vs-closed-range-standard-grip_IMG_7431-768x523.jpg 768w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks_Normal-open-vs-closed-range-standard-grip_IMG_7431-1536x1046.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Marcosticks_Normal-open-vs-closed-range-standard-grip_IMG_7431-2048x1395.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Standard Grip closes in on food with an inward angle<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Learn_new_grips\"><\/span>Learn new grips<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, Dino Claws inherits from its parent grip, <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-chicken-claws-grip\/\">Chicken Claws<\/a>, the complete disuse of the pulp of the thumb. In addition, it disengages the index finger in most eating situations, leaving only the thumb and the middle finger operating the top chopstick. Most of the time, the ring finger is only ornamental in Dino Claws as well, leaving the bottom chopstick dangling by the pivot point, held only by the base of the thumb and the purlicue. In this regard, Dino Claws is related to the <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-dangling-stick-grip\/\">Dangling Stick<\/a> grip. See the <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/family-tree-of-alternative-grips\/\">Family Tree<\/a> of alternative grips for all relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Users of Dino Claws may <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/how-to-use-chopsticks\/\">learn to twirl chopsticks<\/a> with <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-standard-grip\/\">Standard Grip<\/a>, thus increasing their leverage on food items. This can be done by mastering the 1-on-2-support technique for holding the bottom chopstick, and the tripod hold technique for manipulating the top chopstick. Wouldn&#8217;t it be cool to be able to use multiple chopstick grips?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Taiwanese_%E9%9C%B8%E7%8E%8B%E9%BE%8D%E7%88%AA\"><\/span>Taiwanese: \u9738\u738b\u9f8d\u722a<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This grip is known as \u9738\u738b\u9f8d\u722a (P\u00e0-\u00f4ng l\u00eang ji\u00e1u) in Taiwanese. \u9738\u738b\u9f8d is how \u66b4\u9f8d is generally known in Taiwanese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Instagram_Pictures\"><\/span>Instagram Pictures<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/explore\/tags\/dinoclawsgrip\/\">#DinoClawsGrip<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dino Claws derives from Chicken Claws, further deviating from Standard Grip by relieving index finger of its duty, leaving only 2 fingers operating chopsticks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1490,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"no","ocean_post_layout":"","ocean_both_sidebars_style":"","ocean_both_sidebars_content_width":0,"ocean_both_sidebars_sidebars_width":0,"ocean_sidebar":"0","ocean_second_sidebar":"0","ocean_disable_margins":"enable","ocean_add_body_class":"","ocean_shortcode_before_top_bar":"","ocean_shortcode_after_top_bar":"","ocean_shortcode_before_header":"","ocean_shortcode_after_header":"","ocean_has_shortcode":"","ocean_shortcode_after_title":"","ocean_shortcode_before_footer_widgets":"","ocean_shortcode_after_footer_widgets":"","ocean_shortcode_before_footer_bottom":"","ocean_shortcode_after_footer_bottom":"","ocean_display_top_bar":"default","ocean_display_header":"default","ocean_header_style":"","ocean_center_header_left_menu":"0","ocean_custom_header_template":"0","ocean_custom_logo":0,"ocean_custom_retina_logo":0,"ocean_custom_logo_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_tablet_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_mobile_max_width":0,"ocean_custom_logo_max_height":0,"ocean_custom_logo_tablet_max_height":0,"ocean_custom_logo_mobile_max_height":0,"ocean_header_custom_menu":"0","ocean_menu_typo_font_family":"0","ocean_menu_typo_font_subset":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_size":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_font_size_unit":"px","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight_tablet":"","ocean_menu_typo_font_weight_mobile":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform_tablet":"","ocean_menu_typo_transform_mobile":"","ocean_menu_typo_line_height":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_line_height_unit":"","ocean_menu_typo_spacing":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_tablet":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_mobile":0,"ocean_menu_typo_spacing_unit":"","ocean_menu_link_color":"","ocean_menu_link_color_hover":"","ocean_menu_link_color_active":"","ocean_menu_link_background":"","ocean_menu_link_hover_background":"","ocean_menu_link_active_background":"","ocean_menu_social_links_bg":"","ocean_menu_social_hover_links_bg":"","ocean_menu_social_links_color":"","ocean_menu_social_hover_links_color":"","ocean_disable_title":"default","ocean_disable_heading":"default","ocean_post_title":"","ocean_post_subheading":"","ocean_post_title_style":"","ocean_post_title_background_color":"","ocean_post_title_background":0,"ocean_post_title_bg_image_position":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_attachment":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_repeat":"","ocean_post_title_bg_image_size":"","ocean_post_title_height":0,"ocean_post_title_bg_overlay":0.5,"ocean_post_title_bg_overlay_color":"","ocean_disable_breadcrumbs":"default","ocean_breadcrumbs_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_separator_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_links_color":"","ocean_breadcrumbs_links_hover_color":"","ocean_display_footer_widgets":"default","ocean_display_footer_bottom":"default","ocean_custom_footer_template":"0","ocean_post_oembed":"","ocean_post_self_hosted_media":"","ocean_post_video_embed":"","ocean_link_format":"","ocean_link_format_target":"self","ocean_quote_format":"","ocean_quote_format_link":"post","ocean_gallery_link_images":"off","ocean_gallery_id":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[41],"class_list":["post-1482","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-grip-classification","tag-family-tree-of-chopstick-grips","entry","has-media"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
