More stuff from the old foundation

[Xhunter911]

More digging at the old 1800's foundation and came up with some pretty cool finds, here is a pic from a few days ago.. 2 old knives, a part of a leg hold trap, and some unkown type of cap! Also found a large tool which looks to be once used on a farm "not in the pic", but I will sure to post a pic soon



a closer view of the knife with the missing blade!
