MasterClass Stainless Steel Carving Fork with Guard, for Meat and All Roasts, Comfortable Grip, 28 cm (11"), Black

A brilliant addition to any cooks cutlery drawer. Made with safety in mind, sturdy and great value. No hesitation recommending

This is a close match to the carving knife in my new Tickwell knife set. I have looked for some time for one with the liftable safety bar in case of slippage when cutting towards the fork, similar to an antique knife I have. The tangs are a little too close together to keep the meat straight whilst cutting but otherwise this is a good product.

Nice handle seems to be made well - thank you

Anxious about my 88 year old mother beavering away with a carving knife every Sunday, I bought her this "traditional" carving fork with safety tang. She's thrilled with it!The fork itself is nicely constructed and the way the tines splay out means you can get great purchase on the meat being carved. Deploying the safety tang means any knife slippage won't end up with you adding bits of your own anatomy to the menu and when flat the fork takes up no more room than any other.So, in summary, a very nicely made tool that does an excellent job, whilst offering added protection. Recommended!

Perfect for what its purpose is tried this Xmas day 1st time on a joint of beef the tines are perfectly splayed and just the right amount of curve on them comfortable to use and with the additional guard on it its above and beyond good also will fit in with knives that look similar in appearance e.g sabatier wusthoff gustav emilern etc no complaints from me

I bought this a while ago and wanted to try it out before reviewing it but can now honestly say that its a great product, not too expensive but well up to the mark quality wise. I've used it for all sorts of tasks from carving to turning sausages to moving chicken breast from a pan to the plate. You need a decent knife to go with it, but this is definitely a really useful addition to my kitchen utensils

Bought as a fathers day gift. My father was happy with it and i was happy with the price. The flick out safety protector is a great idea if you're dealing with tougher meats and the knife you're using slips, the prongs are sharp and the curve makes it easier to hold the folk at a more natural angle. Speaking of the handle it has a good solid, weighty feel! Two reasons for knocking a star off, firstly it can't be washed in the dishwasher (which i honestly don't understand as all our other stainless steel utensils can be) and secondly when the carving folk arrived the sharp end is inside a hardened plastic case for protective reasons (which is good) yet the handle end is exposed and in my case there was a very time scuff mark on the metal part of the handle which thankfully has buffed out. In my opinion they should package the whole thing in a protective box so the risk of scuffing is reduced. That aside i do RECOMMEND this carving folk to anyone thinking of buying it, it's certainly well made!

I find it essental to use while carving from full size chickens/turkeys. Curved prongs give the fork a good grip on the meat and is unlikely to slip. The long extension of the handle with the safety guard means minimal chance of accidental cutting/slipping which puts the mind at rest when using an electric cutter. The fork is made of a single piece of stainless steel (excluding safety guard) so I'm not expecting this product to break anytime soon.
