Look what I found...

in my back yard.

It was around 6" deep. I am guessing it is plated (seems to have blisters on it)

the markings say: "National Silver Co." and "KES" or "KEG" in a crown symbol.

Any ideas on age or value?

I'll repost with normal sized pics

Hey dude! Nice knife!

That pattern is called "King Edward", from the 1950s. Neat to find stuff in your own backyard! I don't dare try to detect in my backyard, lol....

Look at the big picture again.

It's a butter knife.

It's plate. You can see the plate peeling from the base metal.
