Notice anything unusual about this Rock Lobster?

Once you see it you won’t be able to unsee it. Picked this pic up from the Rock Lobster Fbook page. No cheating!

That should be a really stiff rear end, not very vertically compliant

1. Papa fork (front).
2. Mama fork rear).
3. Baby fork (white against the back wall).
4. Wanna-be-a-bike-fork fork (Sadoff lunch fork).

Regardless, straight-legged forks are so beautiful.
