The single struck Kings forks are a little over 7" long. The pattern is crisp and the shell on the back excellent. The tines leave a little to be desired. There are a couple of bends but they are even and do not seem to be clipped. They are marked "F.M." and hallmarks. There is a n excellent monogram of possibly a hairy paw coming out of water with a flower in hand. Why you ask are there two spoons in this picture? They were in a group of silver items I received with the forks and have the same hallmarks without the "F.M.". The patterns are identical and were assuredly made by the same hand. These do not have the hairy paw and are monogramed "Cook".
