The origin of knife and fork
It can date back to the European ancient nomadic life habits .they lived with taking knifes on the saddle . They often cut down the meat and began to eat . Around the 15th century , European people started to use the double pointed fork. The way sending meat to mouth isn’t elegant ,so they change knifes into forks to fork food ,and thus fork became the strict tableware .
