As part of the feasting set commission I have, this is the 2nd piece, a medieval stye fork. Forks in the medieval period were relatively slow to catch on in Europe (they were a thing in the eastern Roman Empire, in Constantinople for quite some time).
This one is a simple two prong fork made from a piece of coil spring. I'm not worried about taste of the metal in this one, since unlike a spoon, you generally don't put a lot of the fork in your mouth.
