[QUOTE="DragonflyWink, post: 3406800, member: 111"]Ummm - no, it is not a Bronze Age artifact. Have seen quite a few similar nephrite handled pieces from New Zealand, would think around late 19th century for this one, and as suggested, a butter knife, also agree it could be silver. The handles on the knives and carving set look like sick mother of pearl celluloid/pearloid (probably sealed in plastic for many years) - sorry, nothing to be done for them... ~Cheryl[/QUOTE]
