Nice score Glenn
Are those architecture plans in the background?
Kinda. Those are some drawings showing data cable locations at a business. I work for an electrical contractor.

I suppose a birthday knife will fit in the "KNIFE FINDS OF THE DAY" thread.
Our youngest grandson handed me a small, wrapped box yesterday at dinner time. His dad asked me if I was still doing any whittling? Now and then was my answer. Feeling the box and knowing it was a knife, I imagined it to be a Seahorse Whittler and guess what? It was! This one is a 2021 Black Micarta Smooth Seahorse Whittler 10355WH SS. :)012.JPG
The 1st time I knew about the Seahorse Whittlers, my best friend told me to go by the local pawn shop and look at the ugliest Case knife he had ever seen. I asked him was it a Russlock? He said no, it's something else. So, I stopped by the pawnshop and became the owner of a Seahorse Whittler. I didn't think it was ugly, just unique!
This new one needs a bath, it's a tiny bit gritty on the main blade. All 3 blades have a decent factory edge.

Whao!!! Great knife!!! Better because of its source.

Aren't those Imperial Tool Kits cool?
I bought two of them, and gave one to my brother.

Zed,
What a great haul! Looks like you went heavy on the Trappers.
The Queen caught my eye first, what year was it made?

Another winner! I have zero luck at finding great old knives at flea markets, estate sales or antique shops. Nice find !

You said it Oscar!
I went by a couple of yard sales today. It was a complete waste of time. The 1st one was a "professional" yard sale ... all stuff bough at other yard sales for pennies, then resold in his yard sale... no deals there...
the next one was and old lady out front with a bunch of junk and a husband with a "big knife collection" and of course he won't
sell any of them...
COME ON MAN!

Scott, jealous doesn’t describe how I feel. I go to flea markets, estate sales and antique stores. I find either absolutely nothing or total garbage. Just my bad luck I suppose.
Great haul you made (as usual).

The big stockman @ 3 o'clock gas a broke tip, main, HIGH CARBON STEEL USA, but the really cool
part is all blades have a scandi grind. Never seen that before.
The small pen is actuslly a broken scales split back whittler Cattaraugus Cutlery

Sorry bro wish I could help. I might offer this info. I do live in FLA and lots of people retire here.
Thank you though!

Yes, you do seem to have good luck where you are, Scott. But I’m in the same situation as Oscar - hardly anything here. I did find one collector in the area whom I’ve bought a few knives from, but there are no flea markets in this county, and yard sales and estate sales tend to produce nothing. OK, enough whining!

The well has been pretty dry for me also... until a little luck just came my way. I will say I get tired of driving around and around and coming up with nothing most of the time....

NICE finds indeed - what is that auto?
BTW - didn't your Mama ever tell you that no one likes a braggart??? If you really found all of those in one run I congratulate you.
Thanks K.Z.
They are all manual, but they are from Italy....
