Typical scam as was seen in the late half of the 20th Century. A prime example being the the now largely forgotten 'Eco Spoon' that was supposed to help halt the onset of global warming and was punted by the likes of Grace Kelly as can be seen in the photo. Instead the profits merely lined various celebrity pockets.

Global cooling in those days. I'm sure you remember.

Klupps of Guangzhou just released their bionic design spoons for non-competitive tea stirring, also featuring robust symmetric flanges.

[The Rotrex Kid]

I'm feline the style of those.

Danish Christmas spoons - one for every year 1920 to 1929.

Happy Christmas, fellow spoonists!

Happy Chinese New year all.

Photos in a day or two.

It's a novelty spoon. Here's a photo that leaked a longer while ago, but somehow got no coverage:

Curious what the more experienced on this thread think, but I would have thought that would be excluded from European competition due to having a negative swash arc. Or is there something underneath we can’t see?

Correct, it's of no use in competition. Something to do with only real sugar being allowed in some events iirc? No saccharins allowed.

With regards to European competition.

They're all cancelled aren't they? What with the EU treating our spoons like they do with performers musical instruments and then all the attendant Customs duties, etc. It's making high level competition completely non-viable.

Yes, what with all the training cancelled due to Covid and the post-Brexit Visas etc it’s hard to know how UK teams will be competitive next year. May be people on this thread who are closer to the actual state on the ground than I am who can comment.

Just cleared the snow from the path using the Krupp 99(b), don't try using a Krupp 81(b) it will take you ages.

[21st Century Man]

And as for salt...
