I already had 4 place settings of this attractive flatware and was pleased to find more on Amazon.com. The price was very good. I already knew the quality would be very good, too.
I realized I've always had a few forks I loved, that were just around since college. They didn't match any sets I'd gotten since then, but I kept them because they were so comfortable in weight and handling. I liked how they looked, too, except that they were scratched up a bit. I just always assumed they were part of a brand-less, randomly well made but long lost line of flatware.
Well after researching various new flatware sets and not liking anything, I flipped over the forks I had....and discovered they were Towle! 18/8 specifically. I immediately went to the company's website to see if they still made this line, leading me to the Arctic line.
Now a quick note --on that website, the product is listed as 18/8. When receiving the flatware from Amazon, they matched the appearance perfectly, they happened to be 18/10....but I'd already picked them up before seeing this, and the weight felt identical with my 18/8 forks -perhaps the tiniest bit heavier, but as someone already sensitive to "too-heavy" flatware, I definitely felt comfortable with this weight.
HIghly recommend this line! It may not be flashy, but it's definitely timeless and comfortable...and great quality! (my three eight year old forks have never rusted...and that's saying something, given that four of those years were spent in college. I just realized they must be more than eight years old, since I got them through random roommate encounters, not buying them as part of a set in a store).
