<p>[QUOTE="MrNate, post: 2641367, member: 5515"]Yes, a fair measurement in my experience is to weigh the forks and spoons, and to estimate silver content in the handles. My estimate is all the regular knives will have approximately 20 grams of sterling if scrapped, and the one small handle would be around 10 grams of sterling. So by that estimate, total would be 1,416 grams total.</p><p><br /></p><p>Everything else in the box was plated/junk.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
