Two presenters show how to extract cement and wax from weighted sterling knives by turning, crimping, and listening for a tingy sound. Dealers pay 2:1 or 3:1 for processed knives because the work is hazardous and labor-intensive, with a yield of about 0.6 ounces per knife.

And I got really good at it. By the— I had like 5 left, and then I realized, just get it more. And then you turn it to the side, and then, then they start splitting. And then you get it, you make it back round again. If you leave it crimped, this shit stays in there. And then act then on this. Then it'll start making a tingy sound. Then it's done. See, it's getting there. Yeah, that's great.
Now you hear it. It sounds all hollow. My good friend Joe helped me out with this video, and I did this just to show you that it's not so easy to take the cement and wax out of these knives. It's a little bit of work. That's why the dealers and the refiners will pay you. 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 because they do all the work. You could try to do it yourself. However, as you could see, it's time-consuming and a little bit dangerous. You could damage your fingers. So some like to leave it to the professionals. This is kind of a heavy example. It equaled 0.6, 0.61 for each knife, which means 2 of them is 1.2, right around that 2 for 1 example.
