bamaj1 Posts: 32 Registered: Jul 2002	posted 02-14-2003 05:52 PM I know what EPNS is, and EPC and EPNS WMM and EPBM and EPWM but what about EPNSS? Stainless Steel? IP: Logged
bamaj1 Posts: 32 Registered: Jul 2002	posted 02-14-2003 06:23 PM Never mind...I just found out it is stainless steel plated on nickel rather than silver. It's a knife blade so that makes sense. IP: Logged
Stephen Posts: 625 Registered: Jan 2003	posted 03-15-2003 06:12 PM Do you know who made the knife, or what the pattern is? IP: Logged
bamaj1 Posts: 32 Registered: Jul 2002	posted 03-15-2003 07:08 PM No, I don't. Someone asked the original question on an eBay forum a month ago and didn't indicate either maker or pattern. It's not a piece of mine. Thanks for your reply! IP: Logged
Stephen Posts: 625 Registered: Jan 2003	posted 03-16-2003 01:52 AM Wouldn't EPNSS = EPNS Sheffield make more sense? See eBay item 2516175594: quote: ... a boxed set of sterling silver handled pat� knives. The blades are marked EPNSS. The handles are hallmarked for Sheffield, 1918 and the maker is WY.
