Our Top Cutlery Posts of 2015

It’s the end of 2015 and 2016 is barging in whether we want it to or not. We’ve taken a look at what were the most popular posts in the last year and wanted to highlight them. So let’s start at the top:

spife-nutella-utensil

In first place by a huge margin is anything even remotely related to Nutella. It is such a popular topic on this blog that we even made a category for Nutella. And the shown Nutella knife (or Spife) was the top of the charts. You people are crazy for Nutella.

Artaste Rain Stainless Steel Flatware

In second place is the Artaste Rain Stainless Steel Flatware which a lot of people really liked and the feedback after purchasing was quite good. And I have to say this is one of the nicer and better staged photos for cutlery that we’ve seen in a long time.

And in third place is not cutlery or flatware but a wonderful piece of artwork. The Vintage Kitchen Silverware Canvas Wall Art  of a Spoon, Knife & Fork was a post from 2014 that continues to be a very popular item in 2015.

And an honorable mention goes out to two celebrity related cutlery items. “This is not Silverware by Tim Burton. It’s by Isaïe Bloch.” and “Salvador Dali – Ménagère (Cutlery Set) 1957” both seemed to settle a lot of discussion about who made what and when and what it sold for.

Have a great 2016 everyone!

TOAKS Titanium Folding Flatware (Fork, Knife & Spoon)

Folding Flatware, I love alliteration. This titanium folding cutlery by TOAKS is classic Everyday Carry Cutlery. And it’s the season that this set would be the perfect stocking stuffer for that camper, student or lunchroom worker in your life. Sadly it isn’t offered as a set and you need to buy each fork, knife and spoon separately. But they are a really good price for titanium.

This is a purchase that can last a lifetime as long as it’s not lost. They would all hook on a carabiner nicely.

Isaac Mizrahi Abernathy Flatware

Isaac Mizrahi 20-Piece Abernathy Flatware SetIsaac Mizrahi (yes that fashion icon Isaac Mizrahi) has a very nice set of cutlery available called Abernathy.  This 20 piece set is a serving for four. It’s made of heavy gauge stainless steel that is dishwasher safe.

They say this design is a convergence of form and function and I have to agree. The mirror finish and understated look let the flatware stand alone as it were. This would be a great starter set to give as a gift to someone with their first home kitchen.

Copper Cutlery is Cool

Hampton Forge Essenstahl Paris Titan 20-Piece Flatware SetAccording to an article at the Huffington Post, copper cutlery is the cool flatware for this year’s Thanksgiving dinner. There is even the claim made by Pinterest that it’s one of the most popular metallic colors of 2015.

Copper flatware and fall colors do make sense to us and we found this great hammered look copper cutlery by Hampton Forge. The Essenstahl Paris Titan 20-Piece set is made from dishwasher-safe 18/0 stainless steel with a 25-year warranty. It is a copper titanium-plating so I would hand wash to be safe. This set includes 4 dinner forks, 4 dinner knives, 4 dinner spoons, 4 salad forks and 4 teaspoons.
