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 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…!

Do you use the pal for skinning? I have a few white hunters, one is engraved Quebec 1961.
