UCO Utility Spork 2-Pack with Tether
UCO labels it a "spork" but it isn't the often seen blending of spoon and fork. A fully functional spoon on one end and a fully functional fork on the other. The fork has a serrated edge for minor cutting. UCO sells these same sporks as a single item, but the two-pack comes with a handy tether to keep them together when not in use. Two colors for folks who want to keep track of which one is theirs. UCO has put two of their Utility Sporks together, literally, with an easy to use tether to keep the… Full review
Morsel Spork XL
Absolutely love mine. Absolutely love mine. I use it daily when I'm home for less dishes even. Can cook and eat with it no problem. I've since ordered three of them. Only downside is it really isn't much of a knife and the rubber edge has cracked on one corner. Full review
Lixada Titanium Folding Spork
Lixada’s Titanium Folding Spork is the perfect utensil for a hiker’s ultralight cookset. Compact and light this spork has replaced the other utensils I used to carry. At a price that won’t break the bank, this is one product worth taking a look at. Back when I carried Mountain House-style meals, my Sea to Summit Long Spoon made perfect sense. But in the years since, I’ve gotten lighter and more efficient with my camp kitchen. I dehydrate many of my own meals, and I cold soak food in bags… Full review
Sea to Summit AlphaLight Long Spoon
One of my favorite pieces of kit. Everything positive thing that other reviewers have noted still holds true. I've had mine for something like six(?) years now, and have converted all of my hiking buddies from any other utensil. The ability to dig into the bottom of the ubiquitous freeze-dried bag without coating one's fingers, hand, and sleeve is just lovely. My only quibble has nothing really to do with the spoon, but rather with its response to my own clumsiness and inattention. I mean, it's… Full review
Morsel Spork XL
Really gets to the food in those backpacking meals without getting your hands messy. We have been using the Morsel XL spork with our Scouts on several backpacking trips this summer and the unanimous opinion is a big thumbs-up. We have used our Morsels with MRE's, and they truly outperform compared to the plastic spoon those meals provide. With backpacking dehydrated meals we are able to get out every little bit out of the corners of the bag without getting our hands messy. Bowls, cups, and plates—no… Full review
Morsel Spork XL
Fork it, Spoon it, Scrape it...is what you can do with Morsel Long Handle Sporks. Like many camping sporks the Morsel product has a fork end and a spoon end. The fork end also has a slightly serrated edge to help slice pieces of your meal. A proper knife would work better on meat. The spoon end also has a uniquely shaped rubber or silicon edge that can be used as a spatula. The sporks come in regular and long handle forms. I chose the long handle sporks to make it easier to eat out of my backpacking… Full review
Optimus Titanium Folding Spork
Amazing spork in most regards, some flaws. Still gets five stars because this spork has been with me for so long. I have had this spork for 10 years (no joke), and I love it dearly, but my god does the fold need to go in the other direction. It was perfect for a few years, but I guess with time or just using it as a multi-purpose tool around the camp, the strength of the connection between handle and spork has failed, and it collapses on itself. All the time. I am extremely stubborn so I still use… Full review
Toaks Titanium Long Handle Spoon with Polished Bowl
My trusty Long Handle Titanium spoon is the only eating utensil that I need in the backcountry. It is simple and functional, and does a much better job than any spork. Ease of Use: A good eating utensil should be one of the simplest pieces of gear. Done right, most backpackers will find that they only need one utensil for fast and effective food delivery. But this is a piece of gear that people often get wrong, IMHO. For years I had it wrong too. I fell into the trap of thinking a spork was the… Full review
Morsel Spork XL
This is the eating utensil that saves you from carrying a scraper and getting your hands dirty from reaching into a deep pot or pan—all while providing you with a sturdy fork and spoon combo (with a mild cutting edge, too) to shovel food into your hungry mouth with ease. Perfect for those who often rehydrate food, but not for use as a cooking utensil in hot pans. Morsel (XL) Confession: I probably have enough cooking and eating gear to outfit a small Scout troop. The last thing I need is more… Full review
