TOAKS Cutlery Set - 3-Piece Titanium Cutlery Set

My first foray into titanium for backpacking gear. I have resisted the trend on titanium cookware so far but a full set of well made cutlery seemed well worth the investment. I bought the TOAKS Titanium 3-Piece Cutlery Set to replace a heavy, stainless steel fork/spoon combo called the "Hungry Camper" and was not disappointed. I have used my Hungry Camper since the early 90's (so long that I originally ordered it via snail mail from an advertisement in the back of Backpacker Magazine . . . back in the days before the Web and e-commerce). I used to extol the virtues of the Hungry Camper to anyone who would listen but the TOAKS set has won me over. Oh the pleasure of being able to have both a fork and a knife in separate hands at the same time! And to have a real fork with real tines that can actually stab at food with precision! Anyway, I purchased the TOAKS set for a trip to the Bridger Wilderness in WY back in August and it served me well. It was lighter than my old Hungry Camper while providing significantly more utility. The fork, spoon, and knife are sufficiently strong and adequately stiff . . . bendable but not without really trying. I should note that my travel partner brought a cheap plastic backpacking spork and admitted at the end of the trip (after enough celebratory & medicinal beers) that he was envious of my TOAKS cutlery set (I might have him sent him a set for x-mas as a surprise). My only small complaint is with the tiny, D-ring carabiner that comes with the set. The carabiner works well at keeping the set together but its shape causes the individual pieces to bind a little on it when attached. Not a big deal but using an oval shape for the carabiner instead would eliminate the binding. Despite that little issue, I did find that keeping the set together made fishing them out from my cluttered bag a little easier. I had considered leaving the carabiner behind on the WY trip but was later glad that I didn't.

I like the light weight and quality materials, great value.

これは口に入る部分がポリッシュしてあるので、口当たりがよく食べ物がおいしく感じます。ちなみに、ナイフを除いた二本セットがモンベルのOEMで売っていますので、ナイフが不要な方はモンベルで買うと良いです。

Muy ligeros pero delgados. Se sienten frágiles pero son muy resistentes. Lo único que no me agrado fue que los compré para acampar y es que hacen más bulto de lo que aparentan cuando los juntas
