Hello. I was unsure if to post this on /ck/ or /k/ but i'll do it here. I am doing a complimentary fork for my bowie knife i smithed. It'll use a bowie knife handle but smaller and with a fork on it.
However, i am having trouble deciding what kind of fork it'll be, a two pronged one or three, what curvature on the prongs...
Like, why are some forks straight, some curved, some slightly curved? What are the pros and cons of each? I just want a fork on a knife handle, but i have a teetering feeling forks are curved for a reason... but at the same time a flat fork would fit very nicely in a leather sheath (both knife and fork in sheath)....

help!

what's your use case for the fork? are you just going to eat with it?

How about food that you don't impale with your fork can rest in the depression?

1. The proper past-tense is "smuth"
2. "Some" curvature is the right amount. It will help you scoop things that don't lend themselves to skewering on the tines.
3. It doesn't matter very much exactly because
3A. you'll adapt to make use of whatever curvature it is, and
3B. you can always adjust it later

starting with a troll and following with actual advice makes a reader think the entire post is a troll

I wasn't trolling, I was just being silly.
Do you remember when people could be silly without it being "trolling"?
Anyway you evidently saw through it, so others can too and decide for themselves if it sounds reasonable or not.
Have a great day, Anonymous.
