The Canadian Army KFS Set Dated 1974 consists of a military-issued knife, fork, and spoon, collectively referred to as KFS (Knife, Fork, Spoon) set. Manufactured in 1974, this set was standard issue for Canadian soldiers during the late Cold War period. Each utensil is constructed from durable stainless steel and stamped with identifying marks, including the date and manufacturer’s information. Designed for functionality and ease of transport, the pieces are engineered to fit together compactly, addressing the space limitations of field gear. These sets were widely used in mess kits and field rations, providing personnel with essential eating implements during training and deployment. The 1974 date indicates production during a period when the Canadian Armed Forces were modernizing much of their equipment to meet new standards. This KFS set is typical of military-issue field cutlery and represents the practical design and standardized equipment provided to Canadian troops during the era.
