Comments about To-Go Ware Bamboo Utensil Set:

I use this for backpacking and I love it. I leave out the knife and case for weight purposes (its only good for speading PBandJ, and we always carry a leatherman or equivalent). It is gentle on cookware, very light, and lasts pretty well. I am buying a replacement set after my spoon got eaten by a mongoose b/c I left it out at the campsite with peanut butter remnants on it. Oops, lesson learned. Dont feed the wildlife with your bamboo spoon.

Comments about To-Go Ware Bamboo Utensil Set:

The only problem I experienced with this set was the pouch. The pouch is very snug, so much so, that even before I removed the set from the packaging, a chopstick had already worked through the bottom of the pouch and punched a hole in it. I stitched it with durable thread, but it remains a problem with the set. Otherwise, it has served me well.

Comments about To-Go Ware Bamboo Utensil Set:

I use this product whenever I'm camping. I love the chopsticks and probably use them more than any other utensil. One problem I have with this set is the bag they come in. I actually got rid of the bag and just put a rubber band around the utensils because if you're missing a utensil they wont stay securely in their bag. I love the utensils, not the bag.

The fork is better than any spork out there. Great for cans of tuna. They clean well and do not hold odor. They do not scrape metal in an irritating way. Best non-plastic product out there!

Comments about To-Go Ware Bamboo Utensil Set:

I love this set and use it every single day (thanks H!). Really. I travel for work and am bombarded with plastic and Styrofoam containers and utensils. These are attractive enough to use in regular civilization -- the chopsticks even have decorative twist at the end -- and durable and easy-to-clean enough to use everyday and in less-developed environments. I have taken them camping, schlepped them to three other continents, stuck them in dishwashers and microwaves, and washed them with camping laundry soap. I've not had a problem with odors, stains, or the finish.

The knife is not sharp at all -- it will not "cut a salami log" as a reviewer stated about another brand. And I've lost the spoon -- left in a hotel and housekeeping threw it away. The pouch is really nice and the freebie mini-carabiner is nice too, but the utensils do not have individual attachment points. The pouch is snug enough with all the utensils for inside a pack, but I wouldn't put it on the outside ever. And after losing the spoon, the pouch is not snug enough and my chopsticks keep falling out. I've got a temporary replacement with a regular metal spoon -- it hurts the aesthetics but is otherwise the same. I would prefer a zipper pouch or a way to attach each utensil with the pouch to the carabiner -- I shall be making my own of the former.

Comments about To-Go Ware Bamboo Utensil Set:

I use this utensil set everyday for lunch at work and have been very pleased with its performance. The curvature of the knife is especially suited for spreading cream cheese (or peanut butter, or whatever...) onto a bagel. I have gotten multiple compliments by my co-workers, and some have even purchased their own. All-in-all this is a very nice set!

p.s. I also use these utensils for backpacking, and they hold up very well.

Comments about To-Go Ware Bamboo Utensil Set:

These feel nice in the hand, work well, though don't expect the knife to cut as well as a steel blade. Overall I like the concept, like the feel, would like them a whole lot more about 2/3 the price.

Comments about To-Go Ware Bamboo Utensil Set:

I use this utensils everyday at the cafeteria at my workplace, to minimize the impact of plastic-ware. They are just perfect!
I don't know, though, if they will be sturdy enough to sustain a backpacking trip.
