Aussie Ora Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 I always had my grandmother's carving knife lurking around today I was scrumaging through some box's in my spare room that I had kept with some of the things that I got from my grandmother after she passed away all those precious things and to my surprise I found the fork lol .whilst everyone got the gold cooking must have been in my heart lol its amazing what we forget what we have .gave the knife a quick whiz on the warthog sharp as its been used and sharpened over time you can tell but that's the beauty of it how many roast were carved with this interesting feature on the fork.

Steve M Posted January 16, 2017 Report Share Posted January 16, 2017 Very cool. That steel will probably last into another generation or two. I've never seen a fork like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Ora Posted January 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2017 My grandparents had a similar set. The fork with the leg / kickstand brought back the memory. My memory was that was used as a guard Nan used to slice horizontal knife towards fork I looked up on the net and some say it was a stand to stop drippings on the table cloth Outback Kamado Bar and Grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
