Would a five piece flatware set be enough for four people to use?

I was wondering if the 5 piece Aston flatware place setting from Williams Sonoma was enough for four people, instead of the 20 piece set.

    Sure, if they don't mind taking turns using cutlery.

    It's two forks, two spoons and one knife. Even if none of the four people care what kind of fork they use for which meal, I'm sure they would quite like to be able to all cut their own food at the same time.

    usually two spoons (soup and tea), two forks (salad and dinner) and a knife. I guess it could work for four, but you would have to share the knife!

    The 5 piece set is just one place setting (FORK, fork, SPOON, spoon, knife)... the 20 piece set is 4 place settings. If you are serving 4 people, then you need the 20 piece set.
