    As stupid as they seem, I've grown quite fond of them. I use them to throw at people when they nearly run me over so the heavier they are the better.

    find a stainless still place or a kitchen builder.. they will have someone who can metal polish it up... something that small should cost next to nothing.

    People don't ask me what they are. They tell me.
