		The set of eating utensils taught by the present invention includes cutlery which has the traditional shape as far as the spoon, fork or knife blade are concerned, and adopts a specific design for their handles.

	Western Eating Utensils
		The eating utensils we use and the ways we use them are the result of centuries of experimentation.
		Most people eat with their hands off of slices of four-day old bread known as "trenchers." Only the wealthy use utensils -- and not so much because they are perceived to be necessary, as because they are impressive.
		For eating soup, Germans are known for using spoons, Italians are known for using forks (presumably the fork assists in eating solid ingredients and the remaining liquid is drunk out of the bowl as it was in the Middle Ages).

	JENSENSILVER.COM MODERN DANISH FLATWARE, NEW YORK
		Eating utensils are tools which it should be a pleasure to use, and like all good tools their form should be natural and precise.
		In these utensils, with the short handles which caused such astonishment at the time, proportions and dimensions are carefully balanced according to the funtional nature of each.
		However, as the ftat end of the handle is not pressed against the hand when eating (actually eating utensils are held rather loosely), this safety measure is not as efficient as it was meant to be and both the spoon and fork have some tendency to roll between the fingers.
