Title: Garage sale find
Post by: greyhunter on August 17, 2013, 01:20:40 PM
Bought these two knives at a garage sale today for a buck each. One is Solingen, Arkansas Toothpick ( written on blade) , other is a Camilus K-Bar style with US and Camilus stamped on blade. Now to find some leather to make new sheaths.

My good luck they were covered in crud and sitting in a bucket with a bunch of cheap knives and bayonets. I was able to read the maker names on both and bought them. Should have bought the rest of the knives, at a buck apiece, I could have made money on them. These two gems will pass on to my girls when I go under, hopefully not too soon!  I can't win on a dollar scratch lottery card, but sometimes even a blind squirrel findsanut.  ;)
