Twirling up a satisfying bite of pasta becomes a quiet daily luxury with this black wooden pasta fork. Handcrafted from fine-grained Asada wood, it feels remarkably light in the hand at roughly six grams. The tines are shaped long to capture generous swirls of noodles, while a gentle curve where your fingers rest and a flat underside give it a comfortable, secure grip. Because wood naturally resists heat transfer, hot dishes are always comfortable to enjoy.
A clear urethane coating protects the fork from water and scratches, making it easy to use for everyday meals. The deep, dark color offers a calm presence at the table, and with continued use, its tone and luster slowly shift, taking on a character all its own. It measures roughly 19 to 19.5 centimeters long and 2.5 centimeters across.
Craft KOCHI was founded in 2017 after its Hokkaido-born artisan studied woodworking in the timber town of Oketo. Working mainly in wooden cutlery, the studio aims to create pieces that become dependable companions at everyday meals. Since each fork is shaped by hand from natural wood, no two are exactly alike, so the one you receive will have its own subtle grain and character.
Craft KOCHI Asada Wood Pasta Fork in Black. Made from natural Asada wood with a urethane finish that improves resistance to water and scratches.
