KA-BAR Tactical Spork & Knife

Good quality. Hard plastic. Very sturdy knife is plenty sharp enough to cut steak. Dishwasher safe. Keep it handy.

These should be in everyone’s backpack. KA-BAR quality, durability and functionality… in a spork and knife.

As others have said, the spoon is too small. It's sized and shaped like a baby spoon for little kids. The curve of the spoon doesn't match that of adult lips like a regular spoon does, and with the spork forks being there, you're going to have a lot of trouble eating anything with liquid in it, like broth or soup. You'll get a few drops of liquid at best in each sporkful, and end up drinking your broth out of the bowl like some kind of insane, crazed savage. But an insane, crazed savage with a decent spork. The spoon is big enough to heap up a good bite of solid foods though, even for a grown-up. so even if you are eating soup, you can get a good bite of the meat, noodles, and vegetables, just not a whole lot of broth along with it, due to the size, and the leakage and dribbling issues around the spork fork location and dimensions. Others have also mentioned the location of the handle's drain hole being too near the spoon and getting clogged with food. The tip of the knife is small enough to ream out any material that gets caught in that little slot. Between the knife tip and a rinse with water, you should be able to clean out the little hole just fine. The hole is there to allow ventilation of the inside of the handle, so water can drain and it can dry out in storage. The knife is where this tool really shines. Yes, it's only plastic, and you would probably hurt your joints or ligaments before managing to cut your skin with it, due to the effort required. But the tip is very pointy and the serrations on the blade make it very capable of cutting meat or any other food product you may be eating. Unless you're like my dear departed mother and believe in cooking all meats to the consistency of a hockey puck. In that case you may have slight difficulty, but it will still cut it. Will it be as good as a $90 Cutco handmade steak knife? No, of course not. But will it work? Yes, absolutely. I recently got dentures, and I can't bite food like I used to. A coworker bought pizza at work today, and oh, it was so good. I have to use a knife and fork to eat things that are too hard to bite through, since my teeth are now plastic just like this tool. The knife on this KaBar spork put the performance of the plastic throwaway knives we had in the breakroom cupboard to shame. I was able to easily cut the pizza toppings and crust with the knife, and the little spork forks worked for stabbing the pieces of pizza and transporting them to my mouth. A couple pieces fell off and had to be re-stabbed, but that happens with the finest sterling silver forks too. I wasn't worried about it. For $7, a tool that is very light, very durable, can save your life by transferring life-giving sustenance to your craw, and can be used as a deadly defense weapon if really needed (the knife), this tool is more than capable.

Nice bug out or lunch glove box tool

It seems that everyone makes a spork nowadays. Plastic, titanium, zinc, aluminum, stainless. You name it, they've made it into a spork. Sporks have been around since the late 19th century. Now, even Ka-bar makes a spork. Being a Former Marine and Ka-Bar fanboy I just had to have one or two. You never know when you need to hunker down and kill off a can of spam while hunting zombies to replenish your internal engine. This spork is made from Grilamid FWA, a high-strength, technical polymer. It's food safe and UV resistant. Apparently the plastic is made by the same company that makes Grivory plastics, which is common among knife manufacturers, especially Ka-Bar. The spork is lightweight with a proper fit & finish. I detected no burrs or excessive mold marks. Removing the knife was easy provided you grab the spork towards both ends and not the middle. There was no wobble or excessive movement when the spork was in it's closed position. The knife does a decent job cutting beef, chicken, and spam. It's a bit short to get any leverage when making long cuts in a steak as I had to place my index finger along the top spine of the blade. The blade is too narrow for spreading jams or butters, the spork end worked better. The spork, itself, works adequately enough. The tines are short and somewhat dull. I found that sharpening them up with a bit of emery board worked wonders. The bowl of the spoon is small for liquid soups, but works well on stews and beans. Traditionally, sporks have never worked well on soups. Drinking soup from a can, canteen, or cup/mug always works the best. Clean-up is easy. The plastic should handle temps up to 60°C. Safe for dishwashers, but the spork is light and might fly around. All-in-all, this is a decent spork. It's light and packs well. The plastic is very tough and should hold up better than a metal spork. Although the knife works, it's best to use your EDC knife along side the spork. While there are many choices for sporks, this is one of the better ones. It's all-inclusive in one small, lightweight package. Using the knife against zombies is just and added bonus.

Went right into my bug out bag

Nice compact KFS. The fact it comes apart meant it would fit into my mess tins easily. When assembled it was a good length for digging into ration packs. Although it is made from plastic, the knife is very sharp and strong. I did not find a use for a knife on this trip but I am sure it will be a good back up. Is it better than plastic cutlery which is a fraction of the price? Well, yes, it will last a long time, not sure its worth the asking price though, so four stars for its value.

Spork is great for more solid things like snags or steak, even stew, but not so great on ramen noodles, tines aren't that long so noodles keep falling off unless you shovel them in like there's no tomorrow. Knife has sharp serrations making slicing up steak easy. If your saving weight and space this is perfect. If traveling on a plane pack in check in luggage because of knife.

Es bastante ligero y se siente resistente, el único detalle es que el cuchillo es de plástico pero también se siente con buena resistencia.

樹脂自体はしっかりしていて、ナイフで肉を切るには問題ありません。 スプーンは500円玉程度の大きさでスープは掬ったりできません。 また、赤ちゃん用のスプーンほど小さいのでカレーとかを食べると 匙の中を舐りきれないことになります。 軽くて丈夫なので、割り切って使うのが良いと思います。 大人が使っている情景は少しかわいいかも。
