It’s always been a unique design — now Light My Fire has upgraded its spork to last forever. Starting next month, the popular three-in-one spork will be available in titanium in addition to the polycarbonate original.

“It’s a forever product,” said Matt Dekker, sales manager for Industrial Revolution Inc., the U.S. distributor for Light My Fire. “It does have that bullet-proof nature that the plastic spork doesn’t have.”

Light My Fire first introduced its highly flexible spork in 2005. Unlike traditional sporks, the new design didn’t put the fork tines in the middle of the spoon. It featured a full spoon and fork with a small, serrated knife on the side of the fork.

Old-school style

The titanium spork, unveiled at Shot Show ’09, is just under seven inches long — like its older brother — but 10 grams heavier than the 7-gram plastic version. And you won’t get it for $3 either. Nope. All that durability will cost you $16.99.
