This titanium EDC spork is so incredibly durable, your grandchildren will be taking it on adventures…




Titanium… The toughest, most lightweight material known to mankind. Sounds like a little overkill to use it to make cutlery, right? Well, the SporKit isn’t the kind of cutlery that plays by the rules. Designed to be compact, useful, sleek, and so insanely durable, it could be used on a human colony on Mars a 100 years from now, the Ti-Ultra êkö SporKit is a nifty little piece of travel cutlery that hopes to swear you off plastic, wood, or any of those single-use biodegradable cutlery sets. It’s small and fits right into your pocket, and comes with a two-part design that, when assembled, lets you eat anything from salads to steaks, and then finish off with some dessert.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’re probably aware that single-use plastic cutlery is literally the worst thing ever invented. It takes seconds to manufacture, minutes to use, and then lasts in our soils and oceans for thousands of years… the alternatives aren’t too much better either. Wooden spoons still require cutting trees, plus they’re fragile and are designed to be flat, making them practically useless. Biodegradable cutlery doesn’t really solve the problem either, since it doesn’t address the problem that is the use-and-throw culture. Sure, you could just carry stainless steel spoons and forks from your kitchen with you wherever you go, but they’re definitely not designed for traveling. SporKit addresses all the aforementioned problems by being highly durable, compact, lightweight, and versatile. The spork shape makes it easy to eat all sorts of foods, from ramen to ribs, and the fact that it’s made from CP1 titanium means it’s lightweight, anti-corrosive, anti-microbial, hypoallergenic, and practically indestructible. The makers of the SporKit mention that it won’t last a lifetime… it’ll last multiple lifetimes.

The Ti-Ultra êkö SporKit comes with a two-part design, enclosed within an easy-carry fabric sleeve. The two parts, i.e., the spork and the handle, snap together to create cutlery that’s easy to grip, and at 150mm long, that’s long enough for stirring, serving, and eating too. As an added bonus, the SporKit can even be used without its snap-on handle, making it even more portable.

Just the spork element itself measures 104mm, and comes with a channel that’s sufficiently long enough to grip onto (it’s sort of like sketching with a small pencil), and a negative cavity on the channel lets you even slide a carabiner clip in, allowing you to carry your SporKit independently, suspended to the belt loop on your pants, or your backpack while traveling. Go ahead and grab a Ti-Ultra êkö SporKit at its early-bird price of $30. Each SporKit comes with its fabric carrying-case, and ships in December 2022.

Gastronaut Kids’ Utensil: Spork, The Final Frontier

If you’ve got kids, you know how it can be hard to get them to eat when you want them to. Anything you can do to make meal time more fun and entertaining is likely to help. If your kids want to be astronauts when they grow up, you can use this utensil to encourage them to chow down. The Gastronaut is basically a spork with an astronaut for a body, or an astronaut with a spork sticking out of his backpack, depending on how you look at things.

All you’ve got to do is tell your kids they’ll grow up big and strong like a real astronaut if they eat dinner with this stainless steel spork, and that should do the trick. Though if you do choose to feed them actual astronaut food, it might be a bit harder for them to stomach even with the spoon. Better to stick with spaghetti and meatballs for now.

You can grab the Gastronaut spork from Fred for 12 bucks.

Ka-Bar Tactical Spork Has a Knife Hidden Inside: Sporknife

The cost of this reassurance during mealtime is just $15.50(USD) over on Amazon. You wanted my salad, well now you lost an eye.

Ramen Spoon+Fork: How a Spork Should Be

I think they had the right idea when they began making sporks and including these hybrid utensils in packs of instant noodles. However, they left a lot to be desired, especially since they didn’t really do a good job when it came to actually scooping up soup or noodles.

That is, until now.

Reinvented SporkSome folks finally saw fit to reinvent the spork and come up with a utensil that is actually useful. The spork you see here looks more likely to be able to perform its functions as both a spoon and as a fork, doesn’t it? While it was specifically designed for eating ramen noodles and soup, it could also come in handy for pasta and other saucy dishes.

The Ramen Spoon+Fork is available from Uncommon Goods for $14 (USD).

Now excuse me while I go fix up a bowl of instant noodles…
