Cutlery refers to any hand implement used in preparing, serving, and especiallyeating food in the Western world. It is more usually known as silverware or flatware in the United States, where cutlery can have the more specific meaning of knives and other cutting instruments.
The major items of cutlery in the Western world are the knife, fork and spoon.
Traditionally, good quality cutlery was made from silver (hence the U.S. name), though steel was always used for more utilitarian knives, and pewter was used for some cheaper items, especially spoons. Plastic cutlery is made for disposable use, and is frequently used outdoors, for instance, camping, excursions and BBQs, fast-food or take-away outlets, or provided with airline meals.
