    That’s true

    1. has that large bolge at the end and is very thin where the gripping takes places making it feel weird in the hand

    So it looks like 5. wins this contest

      I don’t like the bulging teeth in the sides of 5, but I guess that depends more upon what you are eating with it.

      I prefer teeth with as acute an angle as viable, so for the front part, I’d go with 2.

      The space between the teeth also matters:

      • it decides how soft and brittle an object you can pierce with it, without the object breaking down.
      • as it decides the variety of objects you can use to clean them.

      The fork I use has ~1.5 times the space between teeth as 2

      As you said, the handle in 2 is a no. I would be fine with either of 1 and 5 for that.

      Though I like 5 for the neck girth of the handle in the 3rd dimension, which would make it last longer and be better for harder stuff, the oval shape seems like it would cause more unwanted turning during use, requiring a higher Dexterity for handling.

      While the handle for 3 looks like it would be fine for use, it seems like it would break in ~6 months.
