A spork is a hybrid between a spoon and a fork, eliminating the need to bring two separate pieces of cutlery on an adventure, making the backpack just a bit lighter. Despite the name being horrible, it is an awesome tool.

Made from titanium, it is extremely lightweight and indestructible. You will lose this tool before you are able to break it. This material is easy to clean, dishwasher safe, has a pleasant texture in your mouth and feels sturdy. However, there are also other titanium sporks out there. So what makes the difference? It is the shape: a natural fit in your hand, and the bowl has the feel of a traditional spoon in your mouth. It's almost indistinguishable from a classic utensil, as if it were designed for familiarity and just happens also to be lightweight and have a hybrid spoon-fork on the end. The tips are sharp enough to pick up the hardest piece of soppressata, and the rounded hollow between the tines prevents food from sticking in the gaps. It is fascinating how much you can get just right with such a simple product.
