These are excellent fondue forks, dishwasher safe, comfy in the hand, and elegant looking. I have both the "meat" forks (two barbed tines) and the "cheese" forks (three fork-like tines). The "meat" forks are superior for everything I have tried (bread, fruit, meat, etc) because they stab into the food easily and hold onto it. The "cheese" forks look nice and I haven't had any food fall off, but there's more effort required to spear your food. The "meat" style are best. Also, the "meat" style have little numbers on the butt of the handle for telling your fork apart from everyone else's- the "cheese" do not. Amazon accidentally shipped me the "dark wood handles" version for one of my forks, so I got to look at those before returning them- they look a little cheap and not as nice. Also obviously not dishwasher safe. So go for black handles, "meat" style.

Nice set of forks. Solid, a little heavy (which you expect in a fondue fork if its built well). Long, thin, SHARP points. The wood feels nice too.

Only one complaint. The numbers 1-6 are cut into the ends of the handles, and you cant see them in dim light. They really need some white inlaid paint or something to make the numbers stand out.
