Most anyone in this country and definitely this state that's not communist should know of Oneida Silversmiths.. My home town was once the worlds largest maker of tableware.
The interesting part for us comes from the factory war time production. WWI -WWII military knives among others like plane props and stainless surgical tools.. before corporate fuck ups and ceo greed killed the company they also did some test runs of sporting knives made in Their Mexico plant that never saw the retail market..

Fantastic hardware! Old Oneida gear is top notch. We have a ton of it.

My wifes grandfather was a silversmith for Oneida for almost 50 years. They still lived in their same house in Sherrill from 1951 until just a few years ago when Grandma died at 93 and we had to move Grandpa (turned 97 this year) into a senior living facility in Rome.
