I can supply 100 of each - knives, forks, and spoons.
They are the cheapest form of cutlery, that do not have nice rounded edges, etc, but are fine for a budget.
Knives are quite easy to find, and are much the same, with variations in flat, concave, or convex, and plain, or with a design.
Forks damage easily, and seem to just vanish, so one has to find what one can.
Spoons much the same - many are used to heat drugs, which alters the metal, ruining the spoon.
All budget cutlery I supply, will be fit for myself to eat with - and I am fairly fussy, so you should be happy.

If you wish, I can supply better quality cutlery. I have plenty in the 40 to 60p per item range, which would 'feel' a lot better to use.
Are you using tables?
One way to make things more interesting, for example, is to have 10 tables for 10, each with a different set of cutlery.
Or to have 100 different sets of knife, fork, and spoon ( or anything in between! ).
There are many sets I do not collect, so I can sell off KFS sets at £1 each, for example. They may be all from the same pattern, or from separate patterns and makers, but go together okay.

CommonZense4Men is a concept I am developing for personal development for men - just plain unvarnished truth, and various forms of exercise and therapy. I went through some challenging times, did not think much of anything offered by the NHS, so I drew upon my own instinct, taught myself free-flow Tai Chi, which I have practiced for 25 years, and made deep relaxation a central part of my methods.
One such therapy is collecting vintage stainless steel cutlery and tableware, plus stoneware, and cut-glass, as it is fun to collect, needs cleaning, storage and cataloging, and is a pleasure to use. The kind of thing that previous generations were given as wedding presents, and very often were of such high quality, they sat unused in a cupboard for 40 years. Now for sale at a fraction of their real value, I can put together a collection second to none in England.
I believe people having an important event in their life deserve access to the very best quality of everything at very reasonable prices. My objective is to fund setting up places for CommonZense4Men funded by hiring out vintage items on a large scale. Not sure how to get the project known, and on a tiny budget, but every week I add new items to the collection, and recently began building an internet presence via my blogs on Blogspot.com.

So if you buy the cutlery, CommonZense4Men is what it goes towards.

Postage - by HERMES Courier
06 to 10 KG = £6.50, with £20 insurance
10 to 15 KG = £9, with £20 insurance
Cutlery is a lump - so it is not a bad price.
Royal Mail is an arm and a leg, but better on compensation than Hermes.

The best way to work with Hermes, is for you to go online, pay for the postage, download the label image, and send it to me, so I print it, and stick it on, before dropping it off at the local Parcel Shop.
I take photos, and will mark on the parcel that it is to be handed to you, and you only - i.e. not left on a doorstop, or with Fred up the road ( as happened to one parcel sent to me, which vanished ).
That way, if anything goes wrong, you can deal direct with Hermes, knowing for absolute certain that they received the parcel from me.

I hope I have thought of everything - if not, feel free to ask any questions. Zen
