These little cocktail forks are perfect! They are a style that matches my other flatware. They are a perfect weight and size to spear fruit, appetizers, shellfish. I bought 2 sets and am debating buying another 2 sets.

These WMF Bistro Cocktail forks are only 5 inches long, so are hardly suitable for pulling olives, pickles, etc, out of tall jars (one reviewer suggested they do work on taller jars) however, they are PERFECT for cocktails and seafood! Plus, our "picky eater" digs in when we let him use one of these forks at the dinner table! (Whatever works, right?) Note that the picture shows 6 in the set, but there are only 4, as the description states. Made in Vietnam.

Nothing special about these little forks, works great for digging into your snail shell or to hold a garnish on a cocktail drink.

Why does the product photo display six forks - when each package only contains four forks? I think that is a little unnecessarily misleading, although I knew from reading the description that I would only get four.

When I received this item, one fork was slightly dented because it wasn't packaged very well and was mixed in with larger and heavier items that I purchased on the same day, from another order. But this isn't a big deal since Amazon has been good about sending replacements and providing return shipping labels the two times in over 10-years this has happened in my history as an Amazon customer.

These are nice, clean, sleek, simple, elegant little forks for appetizers or fruit. My daily silverware set is the Iona - Crate and Barrel silverware and I had been searching for a set of cocktail forks that would go together and the finish, weight and quality of these cocktail forks match pretty well and would be perfect if the top of the handle was more rounded (these forks are slightly curved at the top of the handle). I'm very happy with these and will be ordering more. They're a little expensive and would be more reasonably priced if each set came with 6 forks!

These are just the right size and have some weight and a feel of quality that is missing in most items of this kind.

These were given to someone else as a gift, so I can't speak to durability, but I was happy with their quality -- seemed solid and hefty enough to handle shellfish which was the intended use by the recipient. The design is simple and elegant.

Wanted these for those delicate items that forks are too clumsy for. These are nice but they are much shorter than I would have preferred. I measured them and they are 4.75 inches long. My fault for not looking at the details.

These tiny forks are crazy cute! If you need appetizer forks for company, these are the ones to get. Don't pay more--they look great & you will get compliments. In the same pattern, WMF Manaos/Bistro; demi sized spoons are available, as well as standard sized butter spreaders. You can also get basic flatware pieces. Well made s/s flatware with a basic, but standard and clean pattern. So far, I have these forks, the demi spoons, & the spreaders; all are well made. Good value for your money!

These little forks are the perfect length and weight for cocktail forks. I cut up a lot of fresh fruit to have on hand at all times and they are the perfect fork for eating fruit and cheese with. I also use them with my vegetable platters. They are just perfect to use when I have a plate of bite sized morsels to snack on! My husband will cut up a few different meats, vegs and cheese and grab his little cocktail fork and head for the TV!! You will not be sorry you purchased these. I bought 2 sets and will be getting at least one more!

At first I didn't receive what I ordered. I 'e' mailed amazon right away about the mistake and was given instructions on how to return the wrong merchandise and within a day I received the correct order. The little forks are nice, but they're smaller than I thought they'd be. I used them for Christmas......just right for picking little things up.
