Chopsticks do the opposite — the balance point sits at the rear, and the implement finds its working angle naturally in the hand. SUGATA applies this logic to each piece in the set. The handle thickness varies between the fork, spoon, and knife — each tuned so that the working end arrives at the correct angle without conscious adjustment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.8; color: rgba(2,9,18,0.55); font-style: italic; display: block; padding: 16px 0 16px 20px; border-left: 2px solid rgba(2,9,18,0.15); margin: 0 0 24px;\"\u003e\"We pursued a bowl depth that was enough to hold food without requiring the mouth to open wide — something that works for both men and women.
