About this product
Plastic cutlery bends, snaps and ends up in the fire. A proper set of steel cutlery that lives permanently in the camping box solves the problem once. This one is made in 430 stainless – grade 18/0, the same steel used for ordinary household cutlery – and is sized for four people, which covers most family trips and most groups of friends.
Alongside the knives, forks and spoons for the table, the set includes the pieces that always get forgotten: tongs for serving from a hot pot or the grill, a steak knife for anything that needs more than a table knife, and a bottle opener. Those three are the difference between a set you use and a set you keep supplementing from the kitchen drawer at home.
430 stainless is a sensible choice for outdoor use. It resists rust well enough for coastal Tanzania, it takes a dishwasher without staining, and it holds its finish rather than pitting after a season of salt air and charcoal smoke. The whole set stows in a cloth roll bag, which is the part that keeps it genuinely portable – the pieces stay together, they do not rattle in the vehicle, and packing up means rolling the bag rather than counting spoons in the dark.
It suits safari camping, a beach house at Kigamboni or Bagamoyo, a fishing trip, or simply keeping a full set of outdoor cutlery ready to go so that a Sunday braai does not empty the kitchen drawer.
