Don’t you just hate it when you get a blunt-pronged fork that isn’t capable of penetrating bacon or lettuce? Isn’t it irritating when a mangled fork collides with a tooth or can’t be slid under food? Your worries are over when you remember to pack this mobile fork rejuvenator on restaurant outings and
to dinner parties.
Enjoy the knowing and envious looks as you clamp a flawed fork into the patent pending forklift that firmly lifts and straightens bent tines as you turn the thumbscrew. Imagine the guests’ wonder as you calmly pedal the floor unit feeding power via a flexible drive cable to 12 self-adjusting, minute grinding wheels. Picture their surprise and delight as, amid a “Zzvzzvzzvzzv” and a cascade of sparks, a shiny, straight fork with pointy prongs emerges.

This would put a bit of damper on Uri Geller. |

very useful for when there are sons in the house who think that forks are some sort of swiss army knife that they can use as a bicycle tyre remover, screwdriver, hammer, chisel, etc. nice one. |

po: That's why I have a Swiss Army Knife. |
|
| |
I think you can buy a Swiss Army Knife, Fork and Spoon camping combo tool ..... |
|
| |
I am not convinced by the "pedalling" aspect - I would prefer something with the wonderful bee-in-a-biscuit-tin buzz of a 50cc 2-stroke chainsaw engine .... |
|
| |
I actually like my somewhat bent forks. They have
personality. |
|
| |
[po] please educate your sons. The correct tool for safe tyre removal is a desssert spoon. |

| |
<sigh> its a sign of the tines <sigh> |

[eggy] you got an extra helping of s's there |
