Dremels and Other Pumpkin-Carving Tools

Dremel brings its rotary tool technology to the tradition of pumpkin carving. This battery-operated cordless tool runs at 6,000 and 12,000 rpm, allowing you to carve intricate designs quickly and safely. The tool—meant to etch glowing designs into the surface of the pumpkin, not slice through it—comes with 10 carving templates and has a two-year warranty. About $18; Amazon
