I wanted a spoon to personalize and carry on the bike , something that wouldn't be reclaimed and end up back in kitchen draw if you know what I mean .
These were quite easy for me to drill out after I drew the proposed holes on the spoon with a thin black texta .
Center punch and drill using a high speed and sharp drill bits .
I was so impressed with the way the spork turned out , with filed knife edge on one side , I found a suitable knife and gave it the treatment also.
I've tested them out on egg and bacon on toast and they work great .
They feel light to handle and I weighed the knife before I stared ... It weighed 64 grams and it was 19 grams lighter ... nearly a third reduction .

Silky, you're and ideas man. :thumb
When packing for compact camping, it's important keep in mind that by taking stuff that has a multiple uses, can save you space and weight. "If you look after the ounces, the pounds will look after themselves" as a backpacking mate would say.

Nice work. Any plans to go into production?

Money might take the fun out of it .

If they were to be engraved (OzSTOC, or name), they would be worth more. Good as a gift to an enthusiast, and as a customized set, they would be worth more than just a ForkinSpoon.

In the early 70's we drilled holes in everything we could to go faster...so Silky, do these 'lightening' holes enable U to masticate faster???
My Dad told me as a small boy I needed to masticate for longer...I was 55 before I realised that I mis-heard him Wot thuh
Cheers the can:-)
