There’s only one way to make the spoon and fork combo, the spork, unbeatable: by adding a knife. The new and improved spork from The Spoon Sisters features a spoon on one end balanced with a four-tine fork and a sawtooth-bladed knife on the other, erasing all need for individual cutlery.

So ... it’s a spor-knife-k? Spoonsisters.com makes the only possible improvement on the spork — adding a knife edge and ending all your cutlery woes.
Bonnie Spoon, owner of The Spoon Sisters, says that although it was originally designed for camping, the spork is a great gift for college students because of its resourcefulness. She suggests substituting the spork for plasticware commonly found at takeout restaurants. “I love the fact that with this product you can help save the planet,” she says, referring to the spork’s reusability.
The spork, which is made of a durable heat-resistant material, is available at spoonsisters.com and comes in three size and color combinations: small/green, medium/orange and large/silver. Price increases with size, ranging from $5.95 to $9.95 for a package of two. Next time you’re cooking up a meal just call it done, and put a spork in it.
