Mess Kit Cutlery – Fork, Knife, and Spoon

This is the classic ‎U.S. Military Mess Kit Cutlery. It doesn’t get anymore rugged and functional. This stainless steel Fork, Knife, and Spoon have been around for decades and don’t need changing. This design has been on many battlefields. Perfect for camping, hiking or the military re-creationist in your family.

Reports are that the spoon and knife are Utica brand and the fork is Silco Stainless, this intelligence is unconfirmed. But the knife is dull and needs sharpening, that we can be sure of.

Is this the Most Expensive Cutlery you can buy?

Francis 1st by Reed & Barton, Sterling 5-PC Setting w/Soup Spoon

In a mansion grand, on a hill so high,
Lies the fanciest cutlery that money can buy.
With forks of gold and knives so fine,
Each spoon’s a marvel, each fork divine.

A billionaire’s feast, they gleam with pride,
Cutlery so precious, it’s kept inside.
No fingerprints, no greasy smears,
Only velvet gloves and chefs with cheers.

“Oh, do be careful,” the butler pleads,
“These knives are sharper than royal decrees!”
The salad fork sparkles with diamonds bright,
And the soup spoon’s encrusted with sapphires light.

Yet as dinner starts, there’s a twist so bold,
The billionaire guests with stories untold.
For the golden forks are too heavy to lift,
And the gem-studded knives? They barely shift.

In the end, they all laugh with a cheer so grand,
Eating finger food with bare hands.
So here’s to the lesson, clear and sunny,
Sometimes it’s not about the money.

KRAFT Dinnerware – Mac and Cheese Stained Spoon

OK, there’s a lot to tell here so let’s start at the beginning. The online kitchenware company Ann Sandra has introduced their new product the “KRAFT Dinnerware” set which features a Ceramic cereal bowl, Ceramic pasta bowl and a Silicone spoon. Which are “pre-stained” with that Kraft Dinner orange hue. But they state “No KD was used in the making of this collection!” This collection was created by Les-Ottomans in collaboration with Kraft Dinner. Paying for a couple stained bowls and spoon does seems a little silly but the internet KD Cheese and Mac people have something to say about it. Here’s a few comments from the interweb:

“Let’s be real here. We’re all eating KD straight out the pot. Ain’t nobody washin a whole nother bowl for some KD.”

“As a huge KD fan I actually quite enjoy these but I’d go insane trying to keep em clean.”

“It’s a celebration of a meal that sustained a lot of us and was a big part of our childhood. It looks like a well loved bowl you would have been stained over and over while trying to be modern. I love it.”

“Pre stained dinnerware is an unhinged marketing strategy”

Cucumber Spoon

Behold the elegance and sophistication of the Sterling Silver Cucumber Spoon, a culinary accessory fit for the most refined of dining experiences. Vintage from the 19th century and crafted with precision and artistry, this exquisite utensil is designed specifically for serving cucumber dishes with finesse and flair. With its wide, flattened and spikey bowl and delicate handle adorned with intricate patterns, the Sterling Silver Cucumber Spoon adds a touch of opulence to any table setting, elevating the presentation of your culinary creations to new heights.

This is a pierced sterling silver cucumber server. It’s practical and frightening. The flat bowl allows it to slip under the cucumber slices on a plate. And if they do cooperate then the spikes can stab and retrieve. It works for tomatoes too but we hate tomatoes here at The Cutlery Review.

But don’t let its name fool you – the versatility of the Sterling Silver Cucumber Spoon extends far beyond the realm of cucumbers. Whether you’re serving delicate hors d’oeuvres, scooping up other sliced fruits or veg, or presenting petite desserts, this versatile spoon proves to be an indispensable tool in the hands of discerning hosts and hostesses. Its lustrous silver surface glimmers under the soft glow of candlelight, casting an aura of elegance and refinement over your dining affair. With the Sterling Silver Cucumber Spoon in hand, every meal becomes a symphony of taste and aesthetics, leaving your guests marveling at the attention to detail and impeccable taste that define your culinary style.

Is it for sale? Not that we know. If you find one, keep it. It has collectors value and is a handy weapon.
