The origin story of the shaka is that kids would throw the shaka hopping trains at a bruddah who lost his fingers working at the sugar mill.

That probably came as quite a shock. Therefore you could call this fork ''the shocker'.

That's clearly bamboo, which isn't a tree and isn't wood.

I’m glad I’m not the only guy who is so dull that this was literally the first thing that popped into my head after seeing the picture 😂

There's an easy way to fix this. Break the other middle prong too so it becomes a metal utensil, which is sturdier.

Thank you for stating this. I was gonna say something but I didn't want to feel pedantic. But now that you broke the ice I can justify dogpiling.

I shall pour one out in a couple of weeks, after I heal more from recent surgery, for your lost wooden utensil. I too, know the pain of such a loss in the middle of cooking a meal.

I wish you peaceful healing in these trying times.

It’s technically just grass. Then again, pumpkins water melons, bananas and tomatoes are berries…

This is now for serving salmon and the single tine is for gorgonzola. Two in the pink, one in the stink.
