    Comments about Light My Fire Spork - Package of 4:

    these are great...until they break, and they will break. apparently some lucky folks have had one hold up for 2 yrs, but from mine and my friends experience, this is not the norm. i have had two break under light use, no heating or roughhousing, just eating food. dont get four cheap plastic utensils that will end up as garbage. if you are planning on taking a spork into the backcountry, spend a couple extra bucks and get titanium.

    Comments about Light My Fire Spork - Package of 4:

    Great for basic eating tasks - nice design.Be wary of the durability, though. I cooked some bacon using one and quickly melted the tines on the fork. I've also heard reports of them breaking on the trail - if it's your only option, not good. Speaking of, I just saw this great video characterizing the exact difficulty:[@]. Skip ahead to the 6:40 mark for the best part.In summary, a neat little piece of silverware - go titanium if you need the durability, though.

      Comments about Light My Fire Spork - Package of 4:

      Received the sporks as a gift but was unimpressed at first glance. I threw them in my backpack as a place to store them and promptly forgot about them.

      Fast forward a few months and I was on a hike and had forgotten to pack my normal utensiles. Searching for them I found the Light My Fire spork and pulled it out fully expecting the tines to bend the first time I tried to stab a bite of food.

      I was wrong!

      As a fork and as a spoon the spork performs perfectly well. Further, it cleaned up easier than the metal utensiles I normally used.

      The knife portion is totally useless, but that's OK. Who goes hiking without a "real" knife? And don't you normally need to use the knife and fork as a pair when you eat?

      That little comment aside, it is worth noting that the LMF spork has entered into regular rotation. It's not my favorite to use on shorter hikes, but if I'm packing for a longer trip where space/weight are at a premium, I take it.

        This is a nice spork. The edges are nice and smooth, so you don't have to worry about cutting your lips. The serrations on the fork side are no substitute for a knife, but are OK for cutting soft stuff. This spork is just long enough to reach the bottom of a mountain house bag without having to put your hand in the bag (keeps your hands clean). The spork has survived in all my packs and has never damaged my packs. It also comes in pretty colors.

        My son had one break spreading some very soft peanut butter and I had another snap in half while I was drying it with a towel. These are light and easy to clean and are a nice size. Unfortunately they break way to easily. I would not buy these again.

          pretty good product.

          They seem tough and easily handle normal use. Broke the prongs off of one on an orange right away on the first trip with these ... but that was probably my mistake.

          Comments about Light My Fire Spork - Package of 4:

          This guy works just fine for its intended purpose: eating stuff. However, I find myself using the spoon part almost exclusively, as I have a fairly small mouth and the "knife" part of the fork has cut my lip a couple times when I wasn't being super careful. (I'm not an idiot, I promise...just sometimes you're in a hurry, shoveling some food down while trying to get some other things done and...well, cut lips can be the result with this guy!)
          I like the colors, I like the novelty, but the "knife" feature is just silly. As another poster mentioned, it's kind of hard to use a knife (when eating) without holding your food down with a fork, so, IMO, they should probably ditch that part of the product and just have a solid fork/spoon combo.

            These are excellent alternatives to Ti-ware, and they weigh pretty much the same. They're easy to use, very lightweight and very useful. In fact, the smooth-ended spoon is better than my ti-spork for getting that last little bit out of the food bag or my mess kit plate.

            We use them for backpacking, car-camping and have outfitted Boy Scouts with them. The 4-pack is great: color-coded ownership that we supplement with a quick Sharpie note on the underside of each.

              A spork, light and functional. They won't last forever, that's why there's four in a pack, for cheap. Bring two in the field.
