  • My mom & her brothers were arguing over family silverware. The older of my two uncles just took the silverware case & disappeared with it.

    That year for Christmas, every immediate family received a custom made ring made from the melted silverware.

    They’re not anything valuable. They look handmade & some of the pieces were outright ugly, but it worked.

    We all still have that silverware & it means a lot to all of us.

    To OP, completely understand you might not want jewelry made from a nazi knife, but maybe there’s an option to do something worthwhile while that melted metal, rather than just scrapping it?

    If nothing else, you could encase a copy of mein kampf in the metal & have a fancy ass doorstop you can kick around.

    “Is that a brick of silver holding your door open?”

    “Nope. It’s a deactivated copy of that hitler book.”
