KNORK Story
Our story
Innovative creativity can come from anywhere. And that is what happened the day Mike Miller went to a pizzeria with friends and struggled to eat pizza neatly with a normal fork--while trying to impress the ladies joining them for dinner. He noticed an employee using a pizza slicer, imagined how that functionality could exist on his fork, and the rest is flatware history.
KNORK Flatware is ergonomically designed to correctly fit the way we naturally eat. Its patented design combines innovation and function to produce a complete line of modern flatware designed with comfort, style and stability in mind.
Our recent endeavor, the ECO line
With Knork Eco, we’re getting a few steps closer to conscientiously designing multiple-use un-plastic cutlery that has little to no impact on the environment.
KNORK Eco
Plant-based astrik material meets Knork's smart design and functionality
Make the switch from single-use plastics that are clogging up landfills and our oceans.
Check out this Knork eco piece by Yanko Design:
Biodegradable
Lasting only a short time in the landfill. Once the product is thrown away heat, moisture, and bacteria common in landfills begin to eat away at the product. Breaking down cleanly to leave no trace for generations to come.
Sustainably-sourced
The bamboo we use is mostly made of off cuts and leftovers from factories that make furniture and flooring.
Our manufacturing process is perfect for using those imperfect pieces!
Dishwasher Safe
Biodegradable by design but tested to withstand over 500 runs in a commercial dishwasher
