I don't like unmatching cutlery. Every fork needs to be the same style and bent at the same angle so they can "spoon" neatly in the drawer. (Yes, incorrect the bend when I see one who deviates) What kind of monster do you think I am.
In fact, that's why my wife and I live in different apartments. Her drawer loons like the thrift shop cutlery box. ๐ฑ
Edit: I'm just reading that people consider forks "bad" when the times are unaligned. It's quite easy to align them. I check them after each wash. Using a knife to slightly bend them in place does the trick.
I always wonder what happened to forks in other houses where they are all bent. Do people chew on them?
