Table Knives And Forks covers the history and use of knives as eating implements. It traces their development from their design in the Middle Ages to their modern form. The art of the cutler is covered, as well as the gradual introduction of the table fork and the evolution of the trio of fork, knife, and spoon during the early eighteenth century. Author Simon Moore, a well known expert on tableware, has written several articles in hopes of stimulating interest in collecting cutlery.
