It might work with a fork.  You would probably have problems with the
knife becuase it would slip all the way into the bottle.  It seems to
me that the spoon is used because it is far easier to remove from the
bottle when you want to start drinking again (the bowl of the spoon
won't go down the neck.  A knife might.  For that matter, a fork might
go down the next if it is too small.)
