This one is some interesting new technology for cutlery. A new Japanese invention claims to help people reduce their salt consumption. The so-called electric spoon works by passing a weak electric charge to the tongue, drawing in the taste of salt, eliminating the need for users to add salt to their food. Excess sodium intake has been linked to several health problems and this might just help? Check out the video above to see how it works. Thanks to https://www.scmp.com
Opinel Bon Appetit Steak Knives
We here at The Cutlery Review are totally camping and hiking people. And because of that we have always been big fans of Opinel pocket knives. The natural wood handle and simple locking design is a classic in pocket knives and are a thing of elegance. Imagine our surprise when we discovered that Opinel was making steak knives and that the high end Michelin starred restaurants were using them!
The Opinel Bon Appetit Steak Knives set of four steak knives are made of southern olive wood handles and stainless steel. They measure 8.62 inches in length with the blade being 4.37 inches. These steak knives are so versatile that they can be used as paring knives as well, they cut that well. This is some fancy flatware that can function in the kitchen and the dining room.
Stonewashed cutlery
Stonewashed cutlery is the next big thing. It looks great and the finish doesn’t scratch and is more durable. Stonewashed cutlery brings a touch of rustic charm and durability to your dining experience that regular polished silverware just can’t match. Imagine setting your table with forks, knives, and spoons that look like they’ve been lovingly used for generations, each piece boasting a unique, slightly weathered finish. The stonewashing process not only gives cutlery a beautiful, matte texture that hides scratches and wear but also makes it feel more substantial in your hand. It’s perfect for those who love a cozy, homey vibe at their meals and want their tableware to reflect that sense of warmth and history.
Beyond aesthetics, stonewashed cutlery is incredibly practical. Because of its already distressed look, it’s remarkably low maintenance—you don’t have to worry about every little mark or smudge. This makes it ideal for daily use, whether you’re serving a casual family dinner or hosting a laid-back brunch with friends. Plus, the sturdiness of stonewashed cutlery means it’s built to last, offering excellent value over time. So, if you’re looking for flatware that combines style, durability, and a touch of vintage appeal, stonewashed cutlery is definitely worth considering.

What the heck is this spoon?
Meet the marvel of modern dining innovation: the spoon with two bowls, or as some affectionately call it, the “spoonoon.” This quirky utensil is like the Swiss Army knife of spoons, designed for those who believe that one bowl simply isn’t enough. Imagine sitting at breakfast with a spoon that can handle your cereal and your yogurt simultaneously. No more cross-contaminating flavors or awkwardly switching utensils mid-bite. The spoonoon is here to revolutionize your mealtime efficiency, albeit with a side of bewildered stares from your dining companions.
The hilarity truly unfolds when you try to explain the spoonoon to others. “Why, yes, it’s a spoon with two bowls. One for soup and one for dessert, all in one go!” you proclaim, as your friends try to grasp the logic. The looks of confusion quickly turn to laughter as they envision the delicate balancing act of slurping hot soup while delicately savoring a scoop of ice cream from the same utensil. The spoonoon is less about practicality and more about embracing the absurdity of culinary innovation, making every meal a delightful circus act. So, go ahead, embrace the chaos, and let the spoonoon bring double the fun to your dining table!
So we are told it’s a African double spoon used in ceremonies. Like the Dan Wakémia double spoon, also called Yacouba. Who knew?
