Ma Fete Halloween Cutlery Set

Ma Fete Halloween Cutlery Set

It’s October and that means it’s time to get ready for Halloween! We here at the Cutlery Review love Halloween and are so pleased that there are so many choices for Scary Halloween Flatware.

We have seen skeletons and other bones but never Witch’s brooms! So clever and very handy for cleaning up your plate I imagine? The Ma Fete Halloween Cutlery Set from The Gap is fun. This 24 piece plastic set consists of: 8 forks, 8 spoons, 8 knives.

On Halloween night, with a clatter and clang,
The cutlery drawer threw a spooky fang-dang!
The spoons wore masks, the forks had fangs,
The knives danced around, in eerie gangs.

The spatula shrieked, “I’m a ghostly delight!”
While the whisk spun webs, giving spoons a fright.
But when the clock struck twelve, they all calmed down,
And went back to the drawer in the quiet town.

Back to School – ZOKU Pocket Utensil Set

ZOKU Pocket Utensil Set

Summer is almost over and it’s time to get back to school. Or back to the office for that matter. And we here at the Cutlery Review have learned that something you really need to have in that backpack or briefcase is a set of Bring Your Own Cutlery (BYOC). If you are sick of plastic or bamboo forks that may have may as well been made of cardboard then you really need to pack your own flatware. We have horrible memories of trying to use a plastic fork and knife to cut a steak at a BBQ once. Everything broke including our patience.

We suggest you carry this ZOKU Pocket Utensil Set. This “3 in 1” set of fork, spoon, and knife utensils fit together for in a leak-proof case made from made from food safe polypropylene. The utensils are made of dishwasher safe 18/8 stainless steel. Each are just over 6 inches long. Highly rated and at a great price. You need to have this functional flatware in your bag.

The Fake “Williams-Sonoma Fortessa Constantin” Flatware

Fake "Williams-Sonoma Fortessa Constantin" Flatware

We have been writing about flatware here at the Cutlery Review for well over a decade now. Every single Thursday morning we write something new and hopefully exciting about cutlery. It’s fun and we learn a lot. But we have never ever never written about “Fake Flatware” before. This is our first look at a cloned look. Ethically we are not sure where we land on this topic. It’s up to you the reader and consumer.

The set pictured above is not “Williams-Sonoma Fortessa Constantin” but it sure looks like it. With one major difference, the cost. It’s about a quarter the price for a third more pieces. Not sure about the steel and reports are that it’s a little thinner. But it’s the same look. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery? But Oscar Wilde said “Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery that mediocrity can pay to greatness.”.

Is it worth it? Is it the same fork, knife and spoons? We don’t have both sets in our hands, let us know what you think!

Toy Truck and Tank Cutlery for Kids

There once was a truck spoon, so shiny and bright,
It carried big bowls through the day and the night.
A tank fork rolled by, with a clatter and clank,
Stabbing at pancakes like a culinary tank.
They met at a diner, and what did they do?
They shared a big waffle with syrupy goo!
