I immediately downvoted this fork.. then scrolled back because I hate the fork, not the post. -238/10

[–] DarkSirrush@lemmy.ca 28 points 2 months ago

Fuck OP for posting this awful fork/10

Insulting/purely decorative out of 10.

Not specific but technically follows the set rating system

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 18 points 2 months ago

This fork isn't stamped out of sheet steel. It appears to have been forged out of a round bar stock. For that alone, it receives high marks, despite the unconventional appearance.

8/10.

  1. I hate it, but it appears functional

Crab Fork

8/10 dependent on reasonably sized crab to accommodate.

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Also good for oysters!

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

Limited usefulness because it's too narrow. Don't like the asymmetry. Appearance looks a little crude. I wouldn't want one. Tines seem overly sharp.

Probably good for getting olives out of jars.

Why TF is Lemmy's nerodiversity waypoints forks and bricks?

I mean, that's half of mine. How did we get here?

Edit: 2/10. I hate it, but it has heft.

Specific enough?

[–] Typhoon@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I guess but I'd prefer a rational answer.

Yes, that's technically allowed.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago

Because that fork has trisomy 21.

[–] kwilson@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

I'd give it a perfect 5/7

[–] Bishma@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I rate everything like Jason from The Good Place, a 1 to 13 scale with 8 as the highest. I give this a 10.

If I got it at Goodwill for $.10, 6/10 because obviously that's a manufacturing dud but I'll give it a good home and use it when all the other utensils are dirty.

I wouldn't be surprised to see this pathetic waste in some Michelin star restaurant pretending it's trendy and they wasted hundreds buying 200 for $15 each. In that case -5/10.

It looks like someone made a fork based on a toddler's drawing of a fork

[–] Nariom@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] jim3692@discuss.online 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I prefer this one. Way more area in the handle for better grip.

backscratcher/10

[–] trxxruraxvr@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I can not rate this based on this photo. It doesn't even show the complete fork. And how much does it weigh? Where's the banana for scale?

  1. It's not a good spork.
[–] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 months ago
[–] hissingmeerkat@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

Certainly less than a full 4.

Pretentious restaurant/10. They're going to serve you bubbles or pour chocolate sauce on your hands or some dumb shit.

[–] icelimit@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 months ago

I like the 3 increasing gaps in the tines.

8/10 dessert fork conversation piece.

Also stealthy stabby. Might hide in a hidden emergency drawer.

[–] falynns@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

3/10. Not great, Bob.

[–] Wutchilli@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago

3/10 Probably balanced OK and has a certain comfy weight in your hand. But the shape is , all by very distinct, no good at differentiating between handle and fork head. Function wise is the ability to poke food with the fork in question OK but could be improved. But the ability to scoop things up is lost with this fork, the head is just to small and to thick. And i personally hate the different dept oft cut in the forkhead.

[–] Stillwater@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

4/10, not for the unique tines but for the bulbous and tapered handle. Not as comfortable to hold and use as your standard fork.

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 months ago

Zero thousand.

[–] affenlehrer@feddit.org 4 points 2 months ago

More practical than many Star Trek forks

[–] kinther@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Gonna be a 3/10 from me dawg

[–] owenfromcanada@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago
[–] MeatPilot@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

That looks like a fork at a restaurant where they try to convince you that this fork is better than a regular fork. With this fork, you get to experience the chefs childhood struggles growing up in poverty, withou proper tools to succeed in life. As you fumble around trying to scoop up your cashew foam and baked stick.

3/10 for the artistic expression
1/10 for the meal

[–] Donkter@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Excellent for pokin' olives. 7/10

Looks like it has good mouth-feel. As a fidget toy, 5/10; as a fork, 2/10

[–] zululove@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 months ago

You like a good mouthfeel don’t cha
