I found two sterling silver forks (one made by Towle another made by Wallace), and one extremely elaborate German 80% cast-silver cake knife - combined everything all weighs 170g. I think the cast-silver cake knife is around 100 year old.

It's always awesome to see people recovering towle silver ! Because I live 5 minutes from the old towle factory
 

Wow that is really ornate!
And heavy!
Congrats on a great silver haul!

Nice haul of silver that cake knife should get you quite a premium over melt considering how detailed it is.
