Comments about Sea To Summit Alpha Light Spork:

Since I got my ACTION SPORK, I've earned the envy and respect of ALL of my coworkers. I wear my ACTION SPORK on my belt loop so I have it with me at all times. Why, just this morning I had an engaging conversation about whether or not I could take down a hyena with my ACTION SPORK. I think I could. It's surprisingly lightweight and rigid, has a sexy anodized finish, and most importantly comes with a perfect tiny carabiner. When people see your ACTION SPORK on your belt loop, they'll know you're a man/woman of ACTION.

In the interest of completeness, I should mention that I have not eaten with my ACTION SPORK yet. But I'm confident that it's fork enough to stab into a potato and spoon enough to provide a perfectly adequate sipping platform.

Comments about Sea To Summit Alpha Light Spork:

I've used the Rei TiWare, Snow Peak, TiWare folder, LMF, and Campware Lexan. This spork beats them all. It is the lightest of the bunch at 6 grams and is sturdy enough for all eating and food-prep tasks.

It lives in the bottom of a fully laden pack with no bending and is very easy to clean unlike the other sporks with fancy cutouts and hinges.

The handle is long enough to scoop out MRE pouches as long as you open them correctly (tearing them lengthwise).

It will not melt when you use it to poke at a twig fire.

The edges are smooth and will not lacerate your mouth or tongue (unlike the serrated edge of the LMF).

The tines are long enough to keep meat from skidding across the plate when cutting it and yet the bowl is deep enough to hold liquids unlike the Snow Peak which has deeper tines at the expense of liquid carrying.

The price is also right as well.

The only downside is that the spork is not Made in the USA, but rather in the People's Republic of China.

Comments about Sea To Summit Alpha Light Spork:

I love my Spork! Just got done working on some Meat Loaf, Mashed Potatoes, and Broccoli. The spork did well in all areas I've yet to try it on a nice bowl of soup but I will say it sat well in my mouth. Seems to be deep enough unlike some others I've used as a child. Also works well with a nice mug of hot coco..

This is great, it's light and effective. the only thing i have found to be wrong with it is that the handle is a little short for digging into Mountain House bags.

Comments about Sea To Summit Alpha Light Spork:

After a bad experience with a Light My Fire Spork (which broke in half while mixing mash potatoes) I decided to go with something that could easily handle mixing some dehydrated food and not break and hopefully last me many years to come. This spork has not let me down. It is strong and light and relatively cheap.

Comments about Sea To Summit Alpha Light Spork:

In my opinion, this is the best Ti spork on the market. The design makes it very stiff. It is also a great length. I have tried all of the other sporks and this one is my favorite.

Comments about Sea To Summit Alpha Light Spork:

Away with the plastic spoons/forks I used to carry. This is used almost daily, rigid enough to cut meats and shred poultry. The Spoon is ample enough for soups and cereal.

Finish not only looks cool, but makes it easy to maintain. It just makes me smile.

Comments about Sea To Summit Alpha Light Spork:

What can I say? It's exactly the right proportions, it's light, and the indent in the handle ensures that it doesn't bend. Someone took everything into consideration when they designed this. It's those little details that can make or break a seemingly simple tool like this, and there are NO flaws or annoyances that I have noticed in this spork's design.
