Customer questions about this product

What are the different weights for Flatware?

Restaurant flatware comes in four different weights: forged, extra-heavy, heavy, and medium weight. The weight refers to the type and quality of the stainless steel and does not necessarily correspond to the heft of an item.


  • Forged flatware is the thickest and strongest as it's made from a single piece of thick stainless steel and is extremely durable to withstand any commercial environment.


  • Extra-heavy weight flatware is a premium grade and exudes a level of quality for finer establishments, feels sturdy, and is difficult to bend. It is made from either 18/0, 18/8, or 18/10 stainless steel.


  • Heavy Weight Flatware is more durable than medium, and makes for a nice presentation for fast-casual or mid-level eateries.


  • The lightest option is Medium Weight Flatware, also called economy weight, and is commonly sought after by the value-minded customer.
