Consider a lineup of Continental-, Place-, and Luncheon-size spoons, and a corresponding lineup of Continental-, Place-, and Luncheon-size forks. Then consider that dessert-size utensils should be even smaller than Luncheon-size utensils. Now look at the sizes of the so-called "dessert spoon" and "dessert fork" in this video. Those are full Continental-size utensils used for dessert! That's rather vulgar, don't you think?

I'm here because I'm a patron of a French crafter who uses a fish knife as one of her go-to tools. She sent me one and it is one of my top five tools I use in my multi-media crafting. As for place settings and utensils, I prefer chopsticks.

Thank you somehow

My daughter was eating a mackerel, and then I called to mind we had fish cutlery as wedding gifts in 1977, which had not been used for many years because we usually eat salmon. I just brought them back into use. Great video!

Thank you so much

the guy eating was cutting food with a spoon. . .

Is fish cutlery still used if fish happens to be the main course?

Exactly what i needed, thank you 🙏🙏

Got here from watching downton abbey... never thought i would be learning about the correct placement, usage, and replacement of a soup spoon

Wow real appreciate

This was what I was looking for. Thank so much for the wonderful video.

I hope I might get a question answered: What if fish is not a starter course but the main course? Does one just set the table with the fish fork and knife? Does one forgo setting the entrée size fork and knife (or place fork and knife) and just default to only the fish fork and knife? 🐟

Anyone else here because of that one Lindybeige video about how Sheffield was such a centre of cutlery production that they had to invent this and many other forms of cutlery just to keep up with up the pace of production?

Great videography!

Thanks for your useful materials

Yep this is what I needed to know

What about a group cheese board

Thanks for sharing this video

How wonderful! thank you for the clear lesson!

thank you gentleman!

I use just the 👄

It's really annoying that they don't sell fish forks and knives, and salad knives with "regular sets; all affordable sets come with 5 pieces per person/place setting :(

There was a time when two forks were used to eat fish!

this is epic!

oh thank god

Very nice, information easy to understand.......

Worth mentioning, there is an exception to using the fish knife. Unlike other knives, it is held like a pencil.

Hello Dlansi, great videos !! Extremely useful for hospitality colleagues. Do you have more videos coming up?

I know this knife by French movie "plein soleil" but i dont know how to use it even now. I used to use fish knife as butter knife in my family.

Very useful, thank you :)
