I just checked Ikea’s website and they have cutlery sets on clearance for <$2. Theres plenty at various price points, and only the most expensive get over $20.
I understand different people are in different situations. There have been times in my life when $20 was a big expense. I also don’t like throwing out good stuff to buy new stuff. But to me the hassle of dealing with the one bad fork isn’t worth messing around with - either toss it or put it in the junk drawer as a non-food instrument and buy new ones of you get low.
