Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

I purchased the REI Ti Ware spork over a year ago, and I can tell you that this is one GREAT spork. The build quality is excellent, no sharp edges, burrs, or die marks. The laser-cut cut-outs are flawless. REI uses some thick titanium alloy sheet for this spork, which makes it a lot tougher than it looks (most others use thin titanium sheet and then crease the spine to make it more rigid). When eating most foods, there is minimal flex, comparable to that of regular stainless flatware. The polished bowl makes cleaning VERY easy, as most substances can be rinsed off with just water, no soap required. (Not so on the matte handle though...)

The only downsides to the spork are the short tines and the "shallow" bowl. The tines are approximately 1/4th of an inch long, which for some foods, is WAY too short. For most things, however, I've found this to be adequate. The bowl, when compared to other offerings, is a bit shallow. However, this is still an excellent spoon. If you are conscerned about these two factors, I highly suggest the Snow Peak spork (which I also own). The tines on the Snow Peak are more than 1/2 of an inch long on the center tines, and the bowl is deeper. However, the Snow Peak does not have a polished bowl, and has a narrower handle. Also, the build quality on the Snow Peak is no match for the REI Ti Ware spork.

So, if you don't really care about short tines, get this spork. If you are, get the Snow Peak.

Oh, and it is GREAT for every day use as well. (I use the spork at almost every meal)

Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

I went to the the flagship store to purchase the snow peak spork unfortunately they were out of stock so I settled for the REI TiWare. This spork weighs 17grams the snow peak is 15grams the fork tongs are shorter than the snow peak and the bowl is not as deep as the snow peak. I like the snow peak.

Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

I compared this spork to the Snow Peak in the store. I tried to flex the Snow Peak and it not only flexed, but I could really feel (and hear) the metal starting to stress to the point of nearly breaking. Not good. The REI spork, by comparison, felt much stronger. The bowl is shallow, true.. but if you want a deep bowl, get a spoon. The tines are short, true, but if you want long tines, get a fork. This spork does a great job, in my opinion, of combining the best of both worlds.

Great value, as well. The price was very reasonable. I've kept this spork in my office so far, and I eat my lunch with it every day. I'll probably buy another one soon to keep at home and take on camping/hiking trips.

Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

I love this device. I first admired it when a colleague of mine had one on a backpackin' trip up in the Uintah Mountains a couple of seasons ago. It's sleek design and lightweightedness excited my mealtime senses. I immediatedly coveted this streamlined hybrid.
One day soon following the trip, when I was packing my yogurt for lunch at work, I realized that I was always having to remind myself to pack a spoon or take a plastic one and throw it away after. The lightbulb then lit up and I decided to buy that righteous REI Ti Ware Spork. Now I just keep it in a little pouch in my pack and break it out almost every day. People sometimes make fun of me for having it on hand, but they're just jealous as I once was. In fact, some people have even asked to borrow it once or twice. It definitely is the most talked about utensil at the watercooler.

Oh, and it's wicked for camping and backpackin' too.

Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

My wife and I just got back from DNP, using these sporks for the first time. Really nice and worth the cost. I would love to see this offered with a longer handle. Another 4" or so, would make eating straight from the pouch much more practical.

Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

Love the spork - it just feels fun when you're using it. I carry it around so I can eat my cereal or fruit at work when it's slow. It bends a little too easily - but considering it's extremely packable size and light-weight - it's great for camping as well.

Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

If you are like me, when you hear the word "spork" the first thought that goes into your head is those awful plastic things that fast food resturants give you because they are too cheap to give you both a spoon and a fork. This utensil is different. When you use it, it feel like a spoon. If there is something that needs to be stabbed, even something that would be hard to stab such as a salad, the utensil behaves like a true fork. I purchased this utensil for traveling, but lately it ends up in my lunch box. It cleans up easily, either in the dishwasher or by hand.

Comments about REI Ti Ware Spork:

I was choosing between the plastic sporks and this one and decided to spend the extra money for the Ti. It is absolutely worth the money. This spork is easy to clean, and will last forever. The best part of this spork is also the surface finish on the part that goes in your mouth. Other sporks had a rougher finish, but this one was polished super smooth and feels just like regular silverware in your mouth. This feature also makes it easy to "lick-it-clean" which does happen from time to time. When I camp, meals are usually simple so the need for a knife is simple and this spork is all that I need. It is easy to pack. My only concern was for using it to scrape out noodles out of my dualist cookset which I suspect would leave scratches, just like any other metallic utensil. In time I'll buy one for each of my kids and get rid of the old school nested metal sets. Nice job on this one REI.

Sure a titanium spork is a bit excessive but I use mine everywhere. Far better than the plastic utensils available.

I love the spork design for backpacking, it's all you need. Spork feels delicate because it is so light weight, but it is super strong. When every ounce counts titanium is the way to go.
