  Forget the handles because they all suck. The flared outer tines are a sin and the shorter tines on 1 is a war crime. I would take 3. Ergonomically it’s not terrible and I can deal.

  I’d pick 5 but none of these look all that comfy

  • OfficerBribe@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

    Handle of 5 is the best. They usually also have a bit of a weight in it, I hate light forks.

      It doesn’t, that’s Ikea’s fork, I know it. It’s super uncomfortable for me but I’m the neurotypical in the house, my partner only uses those.

      but the handle could be a bit wider. i mean it is the best but not perfect at all.

    Wow we are so different. I don’t even want to be in the same room as 5. I like the edges to be straight straight straight like a hitscan ray no band tyuuuuu

    Yeah, I didn’t think I was fork divergent… But I jumped straight to 5.

  1. It’s balanced, not too sharp or long.

  Nr. 2 is a no go, the thick butt is annoying af to put in a dishwasher cutlery basket. You need to think about these things.

  The rest is fine and whatever.

    newer dishwashers have a silverware rack that lets you sort them and they come out cleaner! it’s nifty.

      My parents have one of those. Pretty nifty indeed.

    • GodyGade@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Do you just throw it in?

      Every dishwasher I’ve ever seen has a dedicated place for cutlery. Mine just a cheap plastic one with separators.

    Forking

• exasperation@lemm.ee ⁨20⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  When I got married, sitting down with the caterer and choosing between dozens of flatware types, I realized that I personally like three dimensional smoothness, with round, cylindrical handles that have some heft but not too much width. I also like cylindrical tines that don’t look like it was made from a flat sheet of metal cut and bent into shape (I prefer tines that are cylindrical, not rectangular prisms).

  I also like curves along where the head meets the handle, and along the head itself. No sharp corners or edges.

  I dislike ornamentation on the handle itself. I like plain, smooth handles.

  I chose the forks for my wedding, and then later on in life, based on what I learned about my own preferences, I bought some flatware that fits those general principles (looks like the Sambonet Hannahs, but cheaper than that very expensive line), and replaced the ones in my house. Now I basically don’t have any forks that I don’t like.

    That’s a lot of insight to have about yourself. I usually cannot tell why I dislike a specific fork. Some just feel repulsive, others I can definitely tell what’s wrong.

  2, but I feel like none is good enough. Or sturdy enough. I need 2, but thicker body

    Neurodivergent is which

    source
• DrPop@lemmy.world ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  2 for hand feel alone

  source
• GenerationII@lemm.ee ⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  I’m inclined to say 2, just for form and shape. But it looks to chunky. Like probably heavy af. So I’ll choose 3.

  P.s. thanks for giving me a new thing I didn’t know was linked to my neurodivergence

  Number 5 is the best, fight me. The wide, rounded handle provides a comfortable grip, and the slightly shorter prongs, combined with the bulge on the outer ones give it a friendly look. You don’t want to put some aggressive looking stabbing device like the disgusting number 2 into your mouth do you? Where all the soft, vulnerable stuff is? Come on. And don’t get me started on the handle of number 3, that is just atrocious, way to thin and I can already feel it digging into my skin when just trying to apply modicum of rotational force into my food.

  • Fenrisulfir@lemmy.ca ⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    5 is practically a spork. 2 is for stabbing food not your mouth. Learn to eat

• Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca ⁨22⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  1 is too short, 2 is too top heavy, 3 is too thin and light, and 5 is almost a spork.

• RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

  None of them are great, all too thin and probably have hard corners from being stamped cheap metal, but maybe 2. Four can fuck off, too wide and trying to be a spoon the rest are too narrow in the handle.

  2 No discussion, the weight, the smoothness, ist all about how they lay in the Hand.
