I hate it when someone comes into my honey / jam / Nutella glass with greasy knives or the like. This is unhygienic, not tasty and the moldy jam quickly.
With the small set you do everything right, will yet another order to me because we are a lot of honey and jams on the breakfast table :)
By notching the cutlery holds perfectly at the glass edge and the "remnants" fall back clean the glass.
