Well, not #2. The curved droplet-shaped handle seems inconvenient for spinning spaghetti around

[–] bluegreenwookie@bookwormstory.social 4 points 17 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

I dont like any of them but if i had to pick: 2. I like the prongs. But I don't like the handles for any of them

[–] Zaphod@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 18 hours ago

So apparently I'm the only one that hates the long ass tines of 2 and prefers something like 1 or 4

[–] Redex68@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago

2 but thicker and a bit different handle.

[–] techfox@sh.itjust.works 11 points 22 hours ago

Handle of 5, prongs of 3.

[–] epique@lemmy.world 5 points 19 hours ago

1 and if we're being really picky I want the top of one and the handle from 5

[–] catsarebadpeople@sh.itjust.works 14 points 23 hours ago

Worst 5 fork designs in this meme. Thanks for nothing

It's not a contest. Look at the contouring, elegant. Look at the polish, shining as bright as Versailles. The tong length has the perfection of a Swiss watch.

Then the functionality- the flared handle provides the user with the comfort usually reserved for oil barons in hospice. The longer tongs serve as an homage to the engineers who brought humanity to the moon.

Every other fork is merely a blight on the earth in comparison to this Adonis of cutlerian perfection.

2.The crazies here who don't think that's the best head by so much that the handle doesn't matter, they scare me. No amount of bad handle can make up for how much I hate the rest of them

[–] PapaStevesy@lemmy.world 2 points 19 hours ago

Exactly, I discounted it originally because the handle was the first thing I saw, but then I looked at the tines and it was no contest.

[–] OccamsRazer@lemmy.world 23 points 1 day ago

You don't have to be neurodivergent to have an opinion about fork shapes. Also 2 is the best.

[–] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago (3 children)

They all have problems. If i have to pick any one of them its going to be 2, but i won't be happy about it.

They are all good since they are all single extruded so no food remains getting in between the metal part and the plastic/wood/other

Though, we could argue that 1. is better that the others for the easy grip due to its in-curved handle. Or that its diametrical opposite, number 5. Is the best thanks to its filleted handle making it easier to hold in the case of the food scooped by it not being very hard.

[–] eldain@feddit.nl 2 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

But only 2 and 5 look post processed after extrusion to remove sharp edges, while the others don't. I have cheap cutlery like this and I don't like the feel.

[–] BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz 3 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 18 hours ago) (2 children)

That's true

  1. has that large bolge at the end and is very thin where the gripping takes places making it feel weird in the hand

So it looks like 5. wins this contest

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

[–] valkyrieangela@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 18 hours ago

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.

2, assuming the broad pommel is a counterweight. If it's flimsy lightweight material then none of them.

How thick are they?

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 2 points 19 hours ago

Some of y'all don't know about the yogurt test and it shows! 4 is the only correct answer.

  1. No discussion.
[–] Harvey656@lemmy.world 2 points 20 hours ago
  1. But I'd still grab 5 just to watch the world burn.
