London: A British company on Wednesday launched a specially-designed stainless steel "anti-terror" cutlery range for use on board aircraft.
Arthur Price cutlery manufacturers and retailers claimed to be the first firm to design such a set, targeted for use by Business Class customers who expect better than plastic cutlery.
The knives, forks and spoons have been created to exact specifications based on new British Department for Transport guidelines amid heightened security fears.
The knives have a rounded rather than a sharp end and measure no longer than 2.36 inches, while the forks have prongs no longer than three centimetres.
Air-India and Jet Airways have placed orders and Emirates and the British Airports Authority are considering the products, said Simon Price from the family company.
