These "C256" or 256 Hertz American made tuning forks are for vibration testing, but are also good for hearing testing. The best in the world. They are weighted and individually tuned to the right frequency. Each fork has been carefully hand smoothed so that there are no sharp edges. If you have seen 256 Hertz extra-long tuning forks without weights at the ends, then you have seen the "student grade". These are the professional grade, and they are of the highest-quality proprietary aluminum alloy. A complete set of these forks can be seen in the Smithsonian in Washington D.C. We weren't bluffing about them being the best in the world. These, the 256 Hertz variety, weigh approximately 2.3 ounces each.

Also see the C128 or 128 Hertz weighted fork which is used only for vibration testing, and the C512 or 512 Hertz fork, which is an unweighted fork used only for hearing testing.
