We've got the Amefa Newton[1] cutlery which I think is a good example of design over practicality. It's excellent quality,8mm forged 18/10 stainless steel, and a beautifully simplistic design which feels like it will [unfortunately] last for ever.
Having used it regularly, I'm sure they called it Newton because it continually reminds you of gravity each and every time you use it. They are so badly balanced, particularly the knives, having far too much weight in the handle. It's not too much of a problem using then, for they do work very well, but when clearing the table it's not uncommon for some pieces to fall off the plate handle first.
