Chopsticks+Fork=Chorks!!! Saw them looking through some web designer's page, so I gave them a look and thought I would share the find.

Kind of a novelty item, but the price is moderate enough one could get a pack and try them out if interested.

Six bucks for 24 of them...I'd hit that! Oldest kid and I use chopsticks a lot. Wife can't figure them out. Rest of the kids like to play with them and try to make it work. Plastic so you wash em and reuse. Snap them apart for regular sticks plus ya got a handy prong on the end...My likey!!!
 
Lol. I still can't figure out how to use chopsticks though. I was once in a chinese resturant and had nothing but chopsticks; I ended up sharpening them to a point with my knife and using them like skewers to eat.
 
Make the fork a spork and I'd be all over those. Make it out of stainless for working around high heat and/or fire would be even better. Sharpen the sticks to skewer stuff. Mine wouldn't have to break apart 'cause I'd go hungry trying to eat chopstick style.:3:
 
I think I'll stick with my LMF Ti Spork, and pack along some plain bamboo chopsticks from home if I have something suitable for eating with them. (Altho some folks will say, why not MAKE chopsticks out in the field,then you can toss or burn them when done instead of packing them out again, and I'd say, good point.) After a few years of faithful service, my plastic LMF Sporks broke, two snapped across the middle, and I'm watching the third for signs of breakage, so the titanium one is what I'm betting to not break (at least, not from normal use and carrying).

I have seen lots of people go into a chinese restaurant and start with chopsticks, only to give up halfway through the meal and switch to a fork. This product is for them.

To me, a 'choon' or chopsticks/spoon combo would be more useful. Feel free to steal my idea as I haven't applied for a patent yet:53:

Yup, that's what I was just thinking.
You can use chopsticks for fork food, but not for spoon food.
 
We use chopsticks at our house occassionally when we have sushi or chinese food. All of us our pretty good with them and we each have our own set. My son saw these and he really wants to get them now.
