3.0 out of 5 stars Great idea, but need more improvement., April 2, 2008

When I first saw The Brunton "FlipSticks" Folding Chopsticks, I told to myself that I have to buy it. It arrived in about a week, the idea is very good, however the folding chopsticks wasn't as good as I expected. First the bamboo stick is not too strong, in my personal opinion I think the company should use plastic instead of bamboo. Second the metal area is too wide, making it very difficult to hold the chopsticks. The company should make it thinner, so that it will fit better between fingers. Overall, I think this is a good idea. I just hope the company will have some improvement on their second version.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, November 12, 2008

I was going to give these chopsticks as a gift. Out of curiosity, I opened the plastic packet to see how they worked...terrible. The chopsticks cannot be held in any way that would allow the user to grasp their food...no less grasp it comfortably. The metal part is flat, wide, and doesn't lock in the upright position, so the two chopsticks get tangled within each other. I thought they would make a clever gift, but I'm glad I tried them before I gave them away.

2.0 out of 5 stars Nothing special, November 9, 2008

I recently bought nearly every pair of travel chopsticks I could find online. I was excited about using these due to their unique look, but they did disappoint. The pivot point in the middle gets in the way making them comfortable to use in exactly one position. This makes it very difficult to eat out of a take out box because you can't get a good grip on the metal parts. Also putting them down and picking them up takes just that much more time because you have grip them just so to actually use them.
