I don't throw multi-course dinner parties. I don't know anyone who does. Why can't I just buy
regular flatware with equal numbers of forks, knives, and spoons anywhere except Ikea? (a 1 hour drive for flatware makes me sad) All flatware sets come with one knife, a soup spoon, a table spoon, a salad fork, and a dinner fork.
With random utensil breakage, I now have 15 spoons, 12 forks, and 1 knife. I need more knives.
