Tesco seem to have changed theirs too. I got some yesterday, I had to do the routine without putting the corkscrew in them. My hand is all brused now! :cry:

It's NOT a gimmick - let's just call it sleight of hand or sleight of fork :lol:

It's a jedi mind trick - "may the fork be with you", and all that. (Ok - that's weak :roll: )

yes it's a regular fork, but in the same kind of way that you can do an amazing ambitious card routine with a regular deck of cards!
