Garage Sale Today

Well, went to a local garage sale today and think I may have gotten pretty lucky? Take a look at the US Navy Robeson Shuredge I found. Should go well with my WWII collection. Let me know if I did ok as I only paid $40 it

U.S.N...Must have been for cutting your way through the Sargasso Sea...

My father had one of these (but not USN marked) back in the 50's...Had the same canvas scabbard...

Neat find!

That is really neat. I will give you ten bucks profit on it and I don't even collect that stuff. Well done!

I guess no one around here was interested because he told me he had listed it on a local gun site about 3 weeks ago but had not had anyone inquire about it. Reguardless I am pleased to have found it.
