Fork Necklaces
« Thread Started on Jun 8, 2007, 8:37pm »
You all might remember that I posted a picture a while back in the Ultimate Shannon Hoon picture thread that had a picture of Chris Cornell wearing the fork necklace that Shannon had made for him. . .

I was looking through some articles that Leigh has donated towards the articles website, and I found this one from a RIP magazine in January of 1993. It has a band photo, and you can see Brad wearing the fork necklace that Shannon gave to him. . .

So it is easy to see that they are different. I wonder how many fork necklaces Shannon gave away as gifts. ???

What a creative gift! It would be so cool to have a fork necklace that was made by Shannon. . . #blindmelon_01#

Thanks for sharing Ryan :)
Chris Cornell wore that necklace a lot before Shannon died. I've seen quite a few pictures of Soundgarden with him wearing it.

I want a fork necklace!

I could make one I bet.....but it wouldn't be half as cool as the ones Shannon made.

I was attempting to make Ryan one lastnight, and all I ended up doing was burning the hell out of my finger. It wouldn't even bend.

I would recommend heat resistant gloves, plyers, a torch lighter and easily bendable fork :P, all of which, I had none. haha

I'm fine. It's just sore if I bump it. I was thinking about going to Big Lots (they sell individual silverware) and trying those out. Oneida definately does not bend easy. I laughed lastnight though when I read the back of the fork. It said "Rogers".

I WILL MAKE ONE :P

Haha Shana :D I'm sorry you burnt your finger and it didn't work out.

And Ryan, here's some more pictures of Soundgarden with Chris wearing the necklace.

On a side note, I can't wait to see Chris this month!

Most eating utensils are made of stainless steel (which is a combination of nickel and chrome). Some are also made of sterling silver.. but I don't own any, because I'm too poor. :P
I can imagine that Chris and Brad poked themselves quite a few times while wearing them... but hey, that's the price you pay to wear a shannon hoon fork necklace :D

I saw that one earlier when I was doing a search. For some reason it doesn't look like a real fork, but still really cool.
