Metal Titanium Sporks

Ever glimpse a unique, simple design that so simplifies something, that you just smirk and wonder, “Well, what in hell took the world so long to try this?”

Sporks are neat enough. But if the opening minutes of X-Men taught anything to anyone that hung on Patrick Stewart’s every word, it’s that evolution leaps forward. This hermaphroditic cutlery – available in light-weight titanium – is THE dual-wielding melee weapon of choice against even the sauciest dish. It’s the pure essence of the spork’s two parents: one head a fork, the other a spoon.

Oh, and they apparently have a Terminator’s Tonka-tough durability: the fine folks from Edmund Scientific claim these babies are machine-washable, heat-resistant, Teflon-friendly and won’t melt in either boiling water or stretch non-stick cookware.

Personally, I could absolutely see myself laying off many forks and spoons, just because one of these can so effectively and durably fill two utensils’ positions. Double the utility, double the awesome. In TITANIUM!

    We know these are not traditional sporks; that’s why the article mentions that they’re dual-ended. The name “spork” is how the product is sold, however. :)
