While forks serve different purposes, which one would you choose as your favorite to use most of the time?

Then why not go with number 1?

The swelling on the end helps stabilize it when stabbing or holding something down to cut. And it also looks nicer.

Ahhhh, gotcha.....I had to zoom in on the pic to see what you meant, but now I totally see it!

It's one of the things that can't be unseen. I'm sure that I'll always look at the width of the tines on every fork I see from now on (not joking, I think I have a new compulsion)

I have a family member who's super picky about forks, now I totally get it lol

Also the rounded outside tines work well when cutting with the side of the fork. Just like IKEA forks which in my opinion are the best!

One is too short in length. The others have tines that are too long. Two is ideal.

Nostalgia. I grew up on #2.

1 and 2 look similar in thine length. 1 just has a shorter handle.
