I'm a bit ham-fisted, so I've snapped a spork or two in my day, usually attempting to use it to cut my takeaway or airline food into smaller, bite-sized pieces. Marketed to people who like to rough it (and therefore need to carry compact, multi-use items to keep their packs light), this Spork/Knife combination, which features a serated edge on the fork portion to avoid mishaps such as my own, might be the answer to my spork-related problems.
Or, alternately, I could try and "rough it" myself by relying less on take-away and doing some cooking at home.
The Spork/Knife comes in a variety of colours, is "machine washable" (which I assume means it's dishwasher safe, and not that it should be put in the washing machine), and is availble from Everest Gear for $2.69 (via Slashfood).
