What is a "crab fork"?
A crab fork, also known as a seafood fork or shellfish fork, is a specialized utensil designed for extracting meat from crab, lobster, and other shellfish. It typically features a small, slender handle with two or three short, pointed tines at the end. The tines of the crab fork are designed to pierce and scoop out delicate pieces of meat from the shell crevices and compartments of shellfish. The slender handle allows for precise control and maneuverability when navigating the intricate anatomy of crab and lobster shells. Crab forks are commonly made from durable materials such as stainless steel, and they may feature decorative or ergonomic designs for aesthetic appeal and comfortable use.
