One of my earliest memories is of sitting with my parents around an open fire toasting bread over the coals using a brass toasting fork. It was about 18 inches long with swivelling head like this.

That was around 70 years ago. I have no idea what happened to the fork. Last time I was in my mother's kitchen (2019) there was a Morphy Richards electric job. The coal fire disappeared decades ago. I have an anonymous Chinese toaster which cost next to nothing. I don’t see the need to spend a lot.

 

However, I'd buy the fork in the link if I were in the UK. They don't ship to China. And I don't have an open fire.
