GoSun's Easy to Clean Stainless Steel Flatware Breaks Down to Credit Card Size
A smart alternative to single-use plastic cutlery
Seeking to tackle the problem of single-use plastic utensils, GoSun looked at the existing alternatives, which are primarily designed for camping:
GoSun's designers found these were difficult to clean, and had no carrying cases; who wants to use these, then throw them into a bag or pocket? Thus they designed GoSun Flatware, which comes in a handy case for transport:
It's not obvious from the still shots, but the utensils slide completely apart for cleaning, as you can see in the vid below.

This is a great and fitting article, not just because it was a kickstarter SumUp on Core77 that made me buy and use these.
I like the product although it has his flaws.
For starters I don't like knife like properties on a (/any) fork.
Luckily it isn't sharp enough to really cut anything other than bread or hurt you.
And they are really flat (but that is not a good thing for a spoon :-)
...
That said, I like the product but see room for improvement, some I've done myself..
The cutting teeth are easily further blunted and I bend the spoon part a little more with a plier so it will hold a little more liquid. It still fits.
Personally I'd also slim the base and remove some material to make it lighter. (Every ounce conts)
So - as with most kickstarter products - there is room to improve.
But it cleans very easy and is dishwasher proof!
