Abstract
The invention relates to a flatware set for spaghetti. When spaghetti is eaten, the spaghetti threads are taken up onto the fork by turning the fork on its axis. In order to improve the spaghetti take-up, the fork (5) has the feature that the at least two teeth (8,9) extend substantially helically around a central axis of the fork. The fork teeth (8,9) then pick up the threads of spaghetti better. Despite a helical shape of the teeth (8,9), it is nevertheless possible to eat conveniently with this fork (5), since this fork (5) is pulled out of the mouth in a helical movement.

Flatware (1) for spaghetti, comprising at least one fork (5) with at least two teeth (8, 9), characterized in that the at least two teeth (8, 9) extend substantially helically a round a central axis (10) of the fork (5), and further characterized in that at least one of the fork teeth (8, 9) has at least one hooking protuberance (13, 15), wherein at least one of the at least two teeth (8, 9) has an end (13) curving away from the other tooth.
Flatware for spaghetti comprising at least one fork with two teeth, said two teeth extending substantially helically a round a central axis of the fork, said two teeth fitted on a shoulder of said fork in accordance with an internal rounding of substantially a semi-circle.
Flatware for spaghetti comprising a plurality of forks, said forks having at least two teeth, said teeth extending substantially helically a round a central axis of said forks, the flatware further including a plurality of spoons and a spaghetti server, all having a handle (6, 18) of substantially identical shape which is substantially rotation-symmetrical, wherein the handle (18) of the spaghetti server (3) is longer than the handles (6) of the forks (5) and the spoons (4).
