Folding Ti Spork for me as it fits very well in my compact cook kit. Will be getting a Ti long handle spoon for freeze dry pouch food. Chopsticks are very good if I want to slow down my eating, normally I'm like a hungry Dog at it's bowl!

Just a spoon, currently one I made out of sweetchestnut, before one of those long sea to summit ones. But all you need is a spoon, Anything else is wasted extra weight.

My belt knife, a home carved wooden spoon (or even a carved Spork!) and an improvised fork (sharpen a twig and split it , bind end of split and insert a splinter to hold the split open) if needed...

I use a ordinary household spoon from home. And sometimes even a fork! My coffe bag holds a silver teaspoon. Imagine that. Makeshift vampire utensil maybe?

Ti spoon, non-folding hence easier to clean in the field. No need for anything else. If you feel you really need a fork, just sharpen a twig or make a pair of chopsticks. Tried sporks - waste of space, but that's just my own opinion.

It depends on my intended meals as to what I take. My favorite is a little Adventuridge hobo set that was gifted to me by Sniper (thanks John).

The fork not needed for this meal but is along as part of the set.

Sometimes with a bit of beef the knife and fork come in handy.


At other times, a small Scout KFS set is what I bring for a meal.


I might pack an AlphaLight Long anodized aluminum spoon (Sea to Summit) and use my pocket knife for the meal.


Or I might just pack a plastic spoon.
