There are a few words depending on whether you are English or American. The English would say 'cutlery' whilst the Americans may use 'silverware' or 'flatware'. Another English word is 'Canteen' (of cutlery)

Depending on the use of the term there are two answers:

1. Cutleries - meaning the businesses of cutlers (makers/sellers of cutlery)

2. No plural- cutlery is an uncountable noun (a type of aggregate noun, a word representing an indefinite number of elements or parts), a word for implements for eating food; edged or cutting instruments in general.
