2, and only 2.

Handle of 5 + the fork of 3

None of these. 2 has the best tines, but the handle sucks. These look like forks you'd find in a diner. Rounded outer tines is a crime against humanity. Did you maybe want a spork instead? 😡

2. Slim fork, wide handle.

Definitely 2. All other answers are just plain wrong.

None. They’re all stamped from thin sheet metal. Tines and handles are too thin and will bend.

Apostrophe catastrophe.

Oh, there are forks: #2.

Head of 2, body of 5.

2, assuming the broad pommel is a counterweight. If it's flimsy lightweight material then none of them.

Obviously #2, but with a slightly smaller handle tip and that's about it.

Clearly its the tines of 2 and the handle of 5. Anything else is madness.

My reasoning is quite simple. The tines on the No.2 fork are longer than the others. Long things are often associated with quality, status and refinement (Long fingers, long lashes, long legs etc.). The extra length suggest dexterity and precision.

Conversely the comparatively stubby tines of the No.1 fork would likely suit a toddler or an adult who isn't allowed near pointy things without supervision. Similarly the tines of the No.5 fork suggest that this utensil was born wanting to be a spoon but then was made into a fork at the last minute. This hypothesis is further supported by the rounded end of it's handle which would suit a spoon rather well.

Numbers 3 and 4 forks are usually, in my experience found in establishments where you help yourself to cutlery from big pots with grubby labels marked "SPOONS", "KNIVES" and "FORKS".

Now to the handles. Although the tines of the No.2 fork are pleasing, it then lets itself down with a handle that widens to the point of absurdity. Perhaps the thought was that it would help the extremely aged keep a firm grip while spooning tapioca past loose dentures.

So a cleaned up fork made from an amalgam of the refined tines of No. 2 fork and the pleasantly rounded handle of No. 5 are the only option for any adult with reasonable dexterity.

Those all suck, this is the perfect fork.

They all have problems. If i have to pick any one of them its going to be 2, but i won't be happy about it.

2. Neurodivergent’s what?

It's 2 and it ain't even close

I'd pick 5 but none of these look all that comfy

2 with 5s handle suppremacy

It's a trick question, they're all bad.

(I have autism)

Neurodivergents*

You don't have to be neurodivergent to have an opinion about fork shapes. Also 2 is the best.

...get that f*ucking plural-~~comma~~ apostrophe out of my face...

^1^ ^head^ ^+^ ^5^ ^handle^

The present is now, old fella

2 No discussion, the weight, the smoothness, ist all about how they lay in the Hand.

Six.

Look at this fork. LOOK AT IT. Now, calm down.

2.The crazies here who don't think that's the best head by so much that the handle doesn't matter, they scare me. No amount of bad handle can make up for how much I hate the rest of them

Wrong sub. Post here

2, but the base is a bit wide. Am I on the list now?

2

Trick question. These are all terrible, therefore I will eat with my fingers.

2 but its a bit big

Adding my voice to the 2 crowd.

2 its just right

2

2 with 5s handle

My fork is the correct fork. None of these are my fork.

In the event of a fork loss, any of these forks could become my fork after a period of time, probably about a month or so until it felt right.

Worst 5 fork designs in this meme. Thanks for nothing

i only eat spoons, they taste better

Hard to say. It's 1 or 3.

2 has an annoying bulbous handle that upsets the balance and the tines take up too much of the fork space, leaving too little room for the little shovel bit at the back that can hold things that might fall through the tines a bit better,

5 is an utter nightmare of awful.

2 clearly
