    $13 Million Dollar Fork? $300,000 set of sterling? I have to see these things. I've been buying and selling silver for 32 years and these statements are insane. Furthermore, you don't assess what the metal something is made of from the date it was made. There is, in 98% of the cases a mark, that tells you if you have sterling, 95%, 90%, 80% silver.

    About his favorite spoons, "these are my favorite out of all utensils. I just love these spoons... they're just so well made, they're so smooth, you won't find a sharp edge on the handle anywhere."-Mico Romeo, Cutlery Expert What he said about smooth edges, I thought I was the only one who thought this about silverware. I cannot stand bendable cheap sharp-edged cutlery. They feel uncomfortable in my hands. I have long fingers so I grip thin forks and spoons harder. Therefore, I got the Soirée set in a mirror finish from Williams Sonoma, specifically because they are completely rounded, thus they feel smooth in my hands. I don't like to waste time, my movements are precise; the purpose towards my purchases are geared toward practicality first, and aesthetics second. This Soirée set fits both criteria. I like that carpenter and founder of Williams-Sonoma, said this: "In those days, all most American cooks had to work with were a couple of fry pans and saucepans, a stockpot and maybe a Dutch oven. They were made of thin aluminum that got all bent out of shape and didn’t cook well...On my first trip to France in 1953, knowing how to cook myself, I loved looking at all the pots and pans and was amazed that everything was available there for everyone. So I made up my mind to do something about getting good French cookware back here to American home kitchens.”-Chuck Williams, Founder of Williams-Sonoma

    Hmm… this video started off interesting, but I think I am going to call bullshit on this one… when the guy said he’s a “cutlery expert,” I thought “well, that’s very specific, but ok- that’s possible.” Then when he said he got a degree in “cutlery sciences” I started getting very suspicious- Really? “cutlery sciences” is a course of studies in which one can obtain a university degree?? But then he told the story of a supposedly “$15 million fork” used in the film Titanic… Um, no. That didn’t happen. First of all, I completely doubt any single fork would be worth anywhere near that much money- even if it were made of thick solid platinum, encrusted with colored diamonds and had personally belonged to Marie Antoinette, just no- a single fork wouldn’t be worth that much. Even if there were a fork like that, then it would either be in a museum or in the private collection of a billionaire- it wouldn’t have been used in a film (unless perhaps the film plot specifically revolved around a ridiculously rare and expensive fork, but even then, probably not- the film would use a cheap reproduction). Anyway, as someone who appreciates fine utensils and has an interest in antiques, I agree with a lot of what the guy says, but the few far-fetched nonsense things cheapen the video a bit.

I'd really like to get my hands on more of them, but for now I use Vietnamese made IKEA spoons. They're pretty well made, but handles are too thin in the middle (stem?) and can bend too easily for my taste.

I have plans to buy a full set at some point, I'll treat those the same way. Going to aim for brand new, I'd feel bad destroying an old set.

So how is it possible that someone used/touched/misplaced an irreplaceable artefact? Arthur price of England has a beautiful historically accurate set available.

I like the degree background, but for 13 minutes (yes I watched it all), the time could have been leathered with useful information about brands, how items were made, where, and so on. I wish you added what people can look for when buying their own cutlery for home use. What to look for, why, and brands. Or talking about features such as 18/10 in silverware..

But a good brand to look up would be Zwilling, J.A. Henckels. A good website to find cutlery and flatware is wayfair.com, they have a large selection of unique cutlery sets, made by well known brands. If you are on a budget, you can also find great sets in thrift stores too.
