Skyrim has non-interactive knives and forks that appear to be crafted from either iron or steel. They can easily be found in most homes and buildings throughout all nine holds. These non-interactive pieces cannot be picked up, but can be moved using magic.
Non-interactive silverware.
Silverware that you are able to pick up such as forks, knives, and spoons can be found alongside Dwemer kitchenware items wherever there is a heavy Dwemer influenced area. This is due to their technological advancements and sophistication, something that the rest of Skyrim hasn't entirely grasped yet. Wooden ladles can be found across most regions of Skyrim, but are generally uncommon items. There are 5 forks, 3 knives, 2 spoons, and 2 wooden ladles found inside the Dwemer Museum in Markarth. When entering Fort Greymoor, if you take your first right, you will come to a bookshelf containing a stockpile of 8 ladles and other non-interactive silverware. There are 3 pieces of names silverware in Skyrim: Balbus's Fork, Wylandriah's Spoon, and Ysgramor's Soup Spoon.
