A cutlery apparatus incorporating the utility of a knife, a fork, and a spoon. The present invention combines a knife, fork, and spoon together in a unique and novel fashion so that a person may both impale and cut his food by the same apparatus. Moreover, the present invention is designed such that the operation may be accomplished by use of only one hand. The present invention incorporates a fork on a retractable shaft. The knife blade is disposed along the bottom most edge of a spoon disposed adjacent the fork. When activated, the spoon/knife combination rotates about the fork to cut the food item in which the fork is displaced. A gravity activated switching means is also incorporated in the present invention so that an individual may not activate the motorized cutlery device while eating. The device may be activated only when it is in a substantially vertical position with respect to the ground.
