Your hands are chiral. You can rotate them however you want, but you’ll never get your thumbs and palms pointed in the same direction at the same time.
Two forks are achiral. You can place them next to each other and they’ll be identical, with all their bits facing the same directions. This is possible because forks have at least one axis of symmetry, which is what makes them achiral.
