Garage sale score before garage sale.

[artslinger]

I inquired about watches from a cl post yesterday on the garage sale section. The gentleman cited that he had a few. Since the sale starts on Fri, but I worked tmrw early, I asked the gentleman if I could see the watches today. He was kind enough to let me see the watches, and his other items. I was able to buy a Bulova Accutron with its original Champion bracelet, and all of these pens and knives. Many of the pens are collectible and vintage, as well as the knives. Does anybody collect knives and can help me identify the larger one and also the stainless steel one. That one has writing, but I cannot decipher it. As always thank you very much for your help and feedback.

The G96 knife is a fairly modern Japan made hunting knife, the one with the aluminum (not stainless) handle and the other one are home made knives.

Really cool. Looks like a lot of them were done by a home knife maker. The wood handled one with the diamond shaped blade looks like a tinglit dagger to me (often made from files that were traded) - if it’s not tinglit, then I’m thinking Africa.

I said tinglit, but i was thinking athabaskan. Could also be tinglit though lol

It was definetely a score. $40 for the Accutron, $5 for all of the pens, and $9 for the knives. That was all the cash I had on me. Love the Accutron, too. Thanks.
