| What
is "grille" size? There are a few companies, mostly
from the forties and fifties that made a knife and fork that they
called "grille" size. Both the knife and the fork have long
handles and short blades or tines. "Royal Crest" was one of
these companies. Below you will see a picture reproduced from
a 1948 handbook of theirs. It describes the usage of "grille"
size as either for your main course or as an additional 2 pieces
added to your place setting to be used as a fish knife or fish fork.
So the choice is yours.
