Awesome Skeletal Cutlery Sets

Andre Lassen's Skeletal Cutlery Makes Eating Breakfast Badass I am willing to wager that when the devil sets his table, he uses AndrĂ© Lassen's Skeletal Cutlery. Lassen is a Dutch artist who specializes in making all sorts of macabre and badass weapons, furniture and jewelry pieces. Despite the inherent creepiness of a fork and spoon modeled after human remains, I do have to admit that the Skeletal Cutlery set is incredibly edgy. Lassen has completely redesigned forks, knives and spoons for the better.  Each of these pieces look like they could be used to fight off hungry demons or siblings, whichever you happen to come across first. The Skeletal Cutlery set is available for purchase and sells for the princely sum of $1,444 for the complete set or $577 per piece. sourse  and  sourse
