I imagine most people here know that table forks  weren't used (in France
at least) until well after the medieval period; some may  have been used in
kitchens.

This document (from persee.fr) on domestic  objects and arms from Normandy
made of iron is interesting overall; among other  things it includes an
image of a fourteenth century fork (on page  214):

Corpus des objets domestiques et des armes en fer de Normandie. Du  Ier au
XVe siècle
Patrick Halbout , Christian Pilet , Catherine  Vaudour    Cahier des
Annales de  Normandie     Year   1986     Volume   20    Issue   20
pp. 1-255
