    I bought out the shelf on the UCO Switch at my local Walmart the other day... replacing all others in my kits. Absolutely the best. Took two of them to Texas Roadhouse on Friday night (me and the wife)... used them specifically. Got a few weird looks from the staff, but they were cool with it, and got some "mendos" from them as well. Yep... until someone can come up with anything better.. the switch remains our fav. Great comparison video Aaron... thank you.

    I love the Gyot Designs 5 in 1 tool. Two pieces that snap together. Some type of nylon or composite. Spatula with a sharp serrated knife edge on one side. The spork has a Bowl that’s good for soups and the tines work well on steak or salad. 9.5 x 3 x 0.6”. They snap together and can be clipped to a carabiner. The spork is perfect with stoves like the JetBoil Flash system.

    That was thought provoking.
    I've been using the dedicated set sawed in half ( not the knife, I have one already )and clipped to my wave sheath.
    Anything longer and I wouldn't carry it daily.
    I've never eaten out of a bag though so short for me is not a concern.
    .
    After watching this I think I'll reshape the handles to fit into my wave screwdriver holder for a full length option.
    A quick look shows my expanding setup can go from 4 inches to 13 by straighteng out my wave and using it as a handle.
    .
    I'm not a thru-hiker.
    It's my edc so a multi-tool is perfect.
    .
    Thanks for the great idea

    I have a lot of varied canteen sets over the last 40+ years and I completely agree. Currently the UCO is probably the best general purpose spork type implement out there. For the bug out bag I would always choose metal over plastic.

    The Eagle Products "Titan-Spork" is 17,9cm/7" and only weighs 18g/0,63oz. It has a regular spoon on one end, and a regular fork on the other. No knife, but a good folding knife will do the trick, and is great to have both for normal practical uses, and for self defense or as a deterrent against attackers or wild animals. The knives on most sporks seem pretty useless anyway...

    Out of curiosity, have you tried a titanium spork? I've had too many plastic sporks break while in the Backcountry and will no longer use them. My favorite is the toaks long titanium spork with polished bowl and the sea to summit version in either anodized aluminum or titanium. The cost of titanium has dropped a lot in the last few years and a nice titanium spork can be had for less than $15. Just a thought.

    IMHO-Dislike sporks and plastic utensils. My utensils (in recommended priority)-fingers (very handy for lots of things and I don't lose them very often), small knife (usually my SAK), titanium long handled spoon with the polished bowl. I may take chopsticks. I take a fork only if I am in my rv along with spatulas, sink, and the rest of the kitchen.

The complex made much simpler. Happy Trails

    I have a titanium spork by EDCGEAR that does not have the serrated knife edge. I do not like the knife edge because it can, and will, cut my mouth. Besides, I carry a belt knife and a neck knife so I don't need the knife on my spork. I also carry an Eatin' Tool by CRKT.

    I like that UCO switch i might give it a go! I recently went from my long handled sea to summit plastic spoon to a toaks long handled titanium spork with polished head. I like it alot its long and the polished bowl gives you the feel of home and overall its pretty sharp cuts good when needed. I like your switch cause you get 3 utensils in one and you can use them long or short. The only down fall i can see to the switch is it maybe separating while your using it or maybe even losing one half by mistake being that it has two parts. Lastly its plastic so if it falls in the fire or gets too hot for some reason it will melt where as with metal it should it will survive short term direct flame or high heat. Im sure if your careful with any camping utensil these things wont happen. Always pros an cons i guess to anything. Thanks for the breakdown! Hike on!!

    Good afternoon Aaron: I keep these two in my out door pack with out fail, the Titanium Long Handle Spoon & Titanium Long Handled Spork both are 8.6" long and weight is 0.6grams each I always have a knife on me so it's not needed on my eating utensils. For me I don't like gadgets on my utensils like detachable items like fork stand, bottle and can openers and such. With my stove I carry the can and bottle openers which is not used a great deal of time. I'm mainly packing dehydrated food and carry can goods with pull tabs most of the time.

    Great vid and thanks . I hike and camp quite a bit and use mostly camping related stuff at home to cook . (I am single and live alone so every meal or snack is like my personal gear review 😆) . I do have quality utensils/plates/pots and pans for for hanging with friends and "inherited" 8 place silver silverware and china set too for special dinners 👫 lol . I love seperates such as the Sea to Summit 3 piece for car camping and eating lots of real food (it is light, great fork knife and spoon , the unique caribener is a nice addition . The UCO (switch?) may be my favorite overall . Despite being platic it cleans okay and has the benefit of being extendable for reaching into a meal . The switch would be PERFECT if it were made of titanium like the UCO spork . I am thinking the TI spork is the same design and only differs in material and weight but the TI is flame resistant . My #1 over all is an older KA-BAR hobo tool . Despite being large and heavy ... It has a VERY sharp and sturdy locking blade and a few extras (can opener, small blade small spoon and fork ) not a joy to use for eating but meets all of my requirements and is the one thing Icannot lose

    Hi gideonstactical - Just came across this video. This is Chris, the owner and Head of Design at humangear. Cool video and I think it's great you took the time to share your thoughts on a wide variety of eating tools. I was a little surprised none of the utensils we make were considered though. We spent over two years designing a better spork that has since gone on to win more design awards than any polymer utensil ever. If you ever decide to do another video I think you'd be doing your viewers a service by checking out our line up. We make everything from super-minimalist one-piece versions, the original spoon-fork connecting tool, ultra-compact telescoping options, and fully-featured sets with knives, chopsticks and even toothpicks (it's the details that count). Everything we make is backed by a lifetime warranty, too (yes, even our $3 Uno - lifetime). Safe travels and bon appetit.

    I mean, just get the titanium Light My Fire Spork and be done with it. Practically indestructible, very light, not too expensive. It ain't the ideal length for the deeper outdoor meal pouches, but those can just be cut down anyways. Sporks have always been a bit of a compromise. Use your regular knife or a pocket knife for all the cutting tasks. I also have a good number of plastic sporks from LMF that I use in lunch boxes and so on, I've never broken any of these because I know what they can and can't do. But the spoon on some of them have partially melted edges after stirring food in very hot pans. (Difficult to control the heat when the pan is over coals, fire or on top of a gas/alcohol stove)

    I personally prefer German 4 Piece Stainless Steel utensil, which is less than 20 bucks on Amazon. The utensils click together so they don't make any noise in the pack, plus one piece one tool. Really don't fancy those double ended ones. What if you need the fork and spoon at the same time? Or if your hiking buddy lost his utensil?

    So one time there were these two friends. One of those friends had a tub of ice cream in his fridge but his friend wanted some. So his friend proceeds to ask "can I have some ice cream." The other friend allowed him some ice cream, however he specifically told his friend he could only have a spoonful. To his surprise, his friend pulls out a comedicallyarge spoon!!! This technically counts as a single spoonful however this isnt what the friend expected and he was quite impressed yet annoyed at the matter

    I don't care for sporks unless they have a spoon on one end and a fork on the other, and, I don't like plastic. I normally carry a stainless steel fork and tablespoon from a mismatched silverware set. Just because I'm in the woods doesn't mean that I must not be civilized LOL. To show how much I disdain sporks, I sometimes use chopsticks and slurp broth from a bowl or straight from the pot.

    I like your channel and your videos a lot so don’t take me the wrong way I like you brother. I scrolled down to see the links & noticed your favorite knives in different categories. I was surprised that you prefer the kabar, esee & fallkniven over anything Bark River. I’m guessing it’s the price which I have to admit is kinda steep but the convex grind outperforms all of them. I have yet to get an esee & I do want one seeing how tough they are (Rowen does a fantastic job with the heat treat). I respect your opinion and choices though & great video on the utensils I’ve been looking at them for a while now and agree with you all the way. I think UCO has a titanium version at Walmart.
