What is a corn holder?

A corn holder (also known as a cob holder or corn cobber) is a kitchen utensil used to hold hot, cooked corn on the cob (cob also refer to an ear of the grain after it has been picked and husked). It consists of a handle and two or three metal spikes that pierce the cob, preventing the corn from slipping out while being eaten. Corn holders are designed to make it easier and safer to eat corn on the cob, especially when the cob is hot and slippery.
