AlphaLight Cutlery uses a durable hard-anodised aircraft grade aluminium combined with a sleek yet strong shape to create an extremely lightweight utensil at a surprisingly affordable price. By hard anodising the aluminium it forms a kind of exoskeleton so the shape of the utensils can be slimmer and lighter. This hardened shell also encapsulates the aluminium, so theres no risk of the alloy leaching into food.
