<p>[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 10487757, member: 111"]Well, keeping in mind that not all information can be found on the internet and that not all information found online is correct (seller information often wrong), can fully understand wanting to find reliable evidence like their presence in a catalog. Will say that the fact that these pieces you show are found online with melon forks (a form easily found in catalogs) from what seems obviously part of the same service, points to their not also being for melon. Sometimes common sense comes in as well - are those small pointy bent tips practical for eating or even lifting melon (which tends to be a bit heavy)? Or would they be more appropriate for hooking and pulling the meat out of a lobster or crab claws, etc.?</p><p><br /></p><p>Hoping you find the information you're seeking...</p><p><br /></p><p>~Cheryl[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
