Old Style Salad Fork

I honestly cannot tell any difference, short of the name, between the Old Style Salad Fork and the regular Salad Fork. Some of the old style have three tines, some have four. The length is comparable. They are not found in many patterns. Old Newbury by Towle actually has two sizes of the Old Style Salad fork (go figure). Whatever the case, here are some examples.

 Old Colonial by Towle (6 3/8 inches)

    Supposedly, salad forks used to have shoulders wider than the tongs (like Old Colonial does). Sometimes they appear labeled as fish forks because of their shape. But I agree, some look no different.
