I dug two outrageous silver pocket knives today hunting an abandoned apple orchard.

I haven't found beauties like these in a long time .. Come to think of it, I don't think I have dug any like them in my 50+ years of metal detecting.

I have to do a little more work cleaning them up, but I love 'em!

Wow Ive never see a silver pocket knife. Way to go on not one but TWO awesome pieces. Looks like the first one is well used.

WOW! Any idea on the date range? All I ever found in orchards is tons of cans from the pickers

Thanks .. My guess is WWI era. This is a new permission, and look forward to going back. Found a few work clothes buttons as well.

Those are some highly unusual finds ! We don't see those here very often at all . Did you find them quite near each other ?

Those are beautiful knives. I can’t decide which I like better. Had to be a huge thrill.

Very nice, Johnny Appleseed may have lost them himself.

They were not real near each other, but I only searched a small percentage of the orchard, which is 21 acres.
