I'm on "vacation" AKA family trip(A very wise man once said "never confuse a family trip with a vacation") to visit the in-laws in the tropical paradise known as East Lyme/Flanders/Niantic Connecticut. I figured when the kiddos were napping
I could hit some antique shops in the area in search of some old knives to rehandle. Well, no luck on the rehandling front, but still a couple of good finds.

Scored a Clauss bread knife and an older Dexter boning knife-the handle is in great shape too.
The shop that I scored the Clauss at had another smaller Clauss with some rust issues and a similar bread knife with no makers mark. If anyone wants me to score these for them, PM me TODAY as I'm leaving soon. My wife & I are driving to Hartford to check out JohnnyChance's place in Hartford for a date night. Really looking forward to it, and maybe some more "antiquing" too!
