Know before you buy
The long, two-tine design allows you to securely anchor roasts and large cuts of meat to your cutting board. By keeping the meat stable, it ensures your carving knife can move smoothly without the risk of the roast slipping, keeping your hands safely away from the blade.
Yes, PakkaWood is a premium material made by impregnating hardwood with resin. This process makes the handle highly durable, moisture-resistant, and less prone to warping or cracking compared to traditional wood handles.
Absolutely. While it is designed to hold meat steady during the slicing process, its elegant aesthetic and sturdy construction make it an excellent tool for transferring carved slices from the cutting board to a serving platter.
We recommend hand washing the fork with mild soap and drying it immediately to preserve the finish of the stainless steel and the integrity of the PakkaWood handle. Avoid soaking the fork or putting it in the dishwasher, as high heat and harsh detergents can damage the wood.
