hi

i bought liquid metal and after watching it i went out shopping for forks and spoons to bend but couldn't find any.

does anyone know where to get spoons and forks that bend easily in london?

thanks

I believe Tesco, Asda and Woolworths have soft cutlery for very cheap.

which ones i normal try and bend on and if i could i would buy it but tesco makes theirs stiff along with asda,etc

but thanks

anyone else know any others

Erm... if you try to FIND the perfect fork (he he he...), it is obvious that you will fail. Forks that might be used for liquid metal are the ones that comes the most easily by. Try the dollar shops, Wal-Marts and any other "cheap" store. If you pay more than a dollar (shilling, pennny, pound or whatever your British equivalent is) for 5 then they are not what you are looking for. Wasnt it clearly explained in the video? (Turn on: Suspcious mode !)

There's a thread already on this topic.

I preferred Asda's Smart Price but they have recently changed their fork and they're now totally impractical for this routine. I'll now have to try at Tesco's.

Fortunately I have around 200 of the old Asda forks stockpiled so these will last a while yet

The video clearly says "I like the Dominion Forks. You can buy them at Wal-Mart for 6 for 2 dollars."

Its a long drive to Wal-Mart from London... I think they're Asda over here, but if you've already tried there then I don't know, I don't have this video myself so I don't know if it says anything else...

The Wilkinsons chain of stores also sell very suitable spoons and forks.

Agreed - Wall Mart is too far from old Blighty No-one over here has heard of Dominion and I've asked through the catering trade.

I found the Wilkinson forks too brittle and they tended to SNAP when doing the corkscrew.

I've used the cheap wilkinsons spoons for bending (they're about £1 for 5, but as has been said they can snap quite easily if your not careful

where in london is wilkinsons?

Click on http://www.wilko.co.uk/index.htm and it'll show store locations for you.

thanks

ill go and see what they have

Asda (that's our version of Walmart, to you yanks - please, give the lad a break...!) have indeed changed their forks. I went to get some from them the other day and carelessly bought 5 packets before I realised they're stiffer than [insert dubious comparison here].

Glad to hear Wilkos have saved the day, once again - they always do

That's a real bummer, they were the best. Has anyone tried writing to Asda & asking for their previous fork supplier details ?
