Okay someone must have buried these because they are in awful condition.
Found these and another piece I will post later at a thrift store in the flatware. Completely black!! .50 cent each total $1.00
I cleaned with toothpaste and the sterling handles are just beautiful but no help for the stainless steel parts.
I wonder if I can find someone to replace that part???
As of now they sit on my buffet just for looks.
Nice find! Love this dense repoussé too :-
To remove rust, you may try rubbing with steel wool. Dipping one night in coca cola is said to remove rust too, but I never tried :-)
50 cents each!??! Is that with or without tax??!! [;>)))))
I never add the tax in....just give you the price tag. With tax $1.08....lol
These are great~! Try this method on the blades:

terrific! next time you have really grungy silver try lining a pan with tin foil, placing the silver on that, pour boiling water in and add a few spoons of baking soda. It is quite amazing how quickly and easily it works. And it is super inexpensive (although pretty smelly). I dont think it will help with the blades though :(.
WOW !!!!!
very nice!!!
