In the salad set illustrated in figure IX.4, the fork differs from the spoon only in that prongs have been cut out of it. This operation is effected only after the flat end of the rough model has been given a concave shape. An identical spoon and fork can thus be obtained (figure VI.3).

Figure VI.3: Cutting forks and spoons

If the horn to be used is not long enough, the handles must be cut along the whole length of the hollow section of the horn. Tea spoons, salt spoons and syrup spoons (figures IX.5 and IX.6) may be made from off-cuts, as shown in figure VI. 3.
