My brother put me in touch with a guy who had knives for sale. Explained that there was a fifty year old collection that was for sale. I bit. A few pics of the collection I took after I purchased the lot. Loose count is 167 knives. Bayonets, daggers, switchblades, stilettos, Bowies, a pile of sharpening stones, steels, throwing knives, folders, razors, stabbies, slashies, etc., etc... Three Randalls of Orlando, 43 mint Case folders, Cold Steels, AG Russels, etc., etc... I figure the value is somewhere easily north of $10K, but who gives a shyt? Best $360 I ever spent. Maybe...

What do you plan to do with the collection? Break it up or add to it?

What a score kamo…
A few of those military bayonets would easily cover your investment these days
Oh and I’ll give you $361 for the Randall’s so you can turn a profit and take advantage of this west coast fool…!

Good score, kamo . . . some good lookin pieces in that lot. A. G. Russell's store and warehouse is about 1 1/2 miles from our house.
