Material: 18/0 stainless steel

Manufacturing method: Stamped out of thick sheet, forged to create complex shapes and polished.

The choice of materials gives the utensil a character of traditional down to earth values, rejecting modern plastic flatware. This would

appeal to young festival goers and older country fair attendees alike whilst the strength and durability of the steel would provide

a satisfying and comfortable eating experience, with echoes of eating back at home. The form is more comtemporary, honouring

function first. Its bulbous end is designed to balance in the hand, making juggling it in one hand easier as well as prevent it from

sliding off the plate; its edge is straightened and serated to prevent things flying off the plate when cut; the prongs are positioned so

as not to catch the edge of the mouth uncomfortably. The utensil is designed to be organic and modern,

contrasting with the traditional materials used without compromising useablilty.

UtensilThis utensil is designed for patrons of food stalls at outdoor events. Above all it is designed to

compliment the experience and excitement of attending a special event. It is simple, performs the

function of knife, fork and spoon to accommodate all kinds of food sold at these events, and also

is durable to stand up to repeated use. The idea is to reduce wastage and littering by collecting

the plates and utensils back after the users have eaten. In this way, the extra cost of using high

quality materials should be outweighed.
