  All of them have a flat handle. My personal preference is for a cylindrical handle. Heavier and easier to hold. Flat cutlery that looks like it was stamped out of sheet metal won’t do at all.

    Also when the tines have like sharp corners from the stamping — ick. I’m not a machine, sir. Please do be keeping ur industrial design away from my mouth. ;x

  1. 3 and 4 are acceptable, 2 and 5 are a crime. i dont get y’all

  source
• Norodix@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  2 and 5. 1 is fine, i hate the others.

  source

  • jmcs@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    2 and 5 are also fine at best. Good cutlery needs to have a proper “thick” handles, these all look cheap and unergonomic.

  1 is the one you leave in the drawer till it’s the last one or use for stuff you don’t want to risk your other forks for…

  Only #2. Having a consistent set of cutlery is priceless.

  source
• HellsBelle@sh.itjust.works ⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  Number 1, just because I have small hands.

  Came here thinking I’d be the odd man out by saying #2, I’m pleasantly surprised.

  source
• swagmoney@lemmy.ca ⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  2 because the wider handle is much more comfortable to hold

  source
• Jean_le_Flambeur@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  For mouth comfort 5

  5 looking kinda shiny

    Sure, if shiny sporks are your thing.

  Add-on question: when using a fork, do you put the points on the plate (or stab a piece) and then use your knife to push food onto the downward curve of the tines (I would say the back but that’s because I don’t do this) and lift it points-down?

  Or do you carry food on the concave curve of the tines (as well as stabbed on the points of course) and lift it points-up?

  This is cultural, neither is incorrect, but it might affect your choice of fork.

  • spankmonkey@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Depends on the food tbh. If it would fall out using the coop method then I point down and push it into the tines.

    Peas: point down and mash into tines

    Mashed potatoes: scoop 'em

    Steak: points down to stab

    Whether you switch hands or keep it entirely in your left

    What about me who just keeps it in my right

    Use a kwhat? Fork and plate alone so you don’t have additional items to wash.

    source
  • angrystego@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I’m doing it the latter way. I chose 1.

• Siegfried@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  4 looks better balanced and crafty enough. 5 looks like a dessert fork

  source
• Spider89@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  1, 4

  source
• auginator@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  Number 5, as a backup 2

  2. The handles on all the others except 5 are hideous but 5 has a really weird pointy bit

  source
• Sylvartas@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  2 and 3. 1 and 5 are too short, they’re last resort shit

  I hate all of them but many people seem to like number two, but that is decisively the worst. I literally just bought twelve forks from a discontinued line because I had a few of them and they are the best forks ever. There are few things better than a great fork.

  • farsinuce@feddit.dk ⁨17⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I stand by you.

    source
  • AA5B@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    I wish I did that. My flatware is outstanding but of course they discontinued it right after I got it. I’m down to 5 spoons 🙁

• 4grams@awful.systems ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  There isn’t a best, maybe a less bad but even then it’s an impossible choice. ✋wins here.

  source
• DesolateMood@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  2 is such an obvious answer

  source
• MoreFPSmorebetter@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  5 and I know this because it’s the fork that lives in my room at all times because it’s my favorite fork and I don’t like when someone else dirties it or misplaces it. It’s my desk fork. Always ready for leftovers or door dash. It’s the perfect fork.

  source
• psx_crab@lemmy.zip ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  1 feels like home, 4 and 5 is too fancy, 2 just feels right enough to stab at my enemy.

  I choose 2.

  source
• wanderwisley@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  2! No other answer is correct!

  source
• Iheartcheese@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  The pointy handle on number 3 is OFFENSIVE

  • ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    All of #3 is torture
