Barry's posts about his auction items that he put up the other day made me kinda think of my little "finds" that I scored on Friday. There's this "Bargain Barn" flea market garage sale type business out in the country that I'd driven past a few times in my travels, and I decided to stop in on Friday. This guy has a TON of "stuff". Here's a few items I picked up.

A Case knife, a CRKT K.I.S.S. knife, and a few old lures, Lazy Ike, Heddon, and a South Bend.
The Case knife was especially a nice grab. It's in pretty good shape, especially considering it was built between 1940 and 1964.

I haven't been able to get a good estimate on the value of it yet, so if anybody has knowledge in this sort of thing, let me know.
I have a feeling I did OK on it though, considering my total expense on all 5 items was,,,,,, $13.00 :biggrin:
nice case, good condish for such an old knife
That's what I'm talking about :bowingsmilie:. Thanks for the post Scott. Beautiful case knife and I hope you get a chance to skin a moose with it on your trip :wink:. Wish I knew more about the old plugs too. Isn't funny how we can drive by treasures just cause we think we are busy. :shrug:
I never seen a CRKT K.I.S.S. knife. What is that for?

Thanks guys. That would be pretty cool Barry. It's got some history behind it. They mark them differently now, so you can
narrow the date down to the year, but back when this one was made they marked it this same way from 1940 - 1964.
I'll have to try and find out some more about it. Case knives are probably one of the most collected pocket knives there are.
really nice Case :yoyo: wish I had kept all the old timer pocket knives I had growing up.
