Not every spoon, fork and knife are made equal, and the shape, finish, curvature, details, etc. can easily make one feel "wrong". The spoons pictured are, while nicely done from a visual standpoint, all over the place when I comes to these properties. Hence my joke. permalink fedilink source parent
