Nice haul!  Is there a company name on the ax?  I bet that skinny blade will filet a fish pretty well.

No name at all on the ax. He had another one that was an old Craftsman but the blade was really beat up. It took me all day to put a new handle on this one. The skinny one is an old Slaughter house knife sharpened down to a Fillet knife. You're right, that's what it will be when I finish it with Walnut.

I picked up a few things at an auction last weekend.

Thanks.  Most of that was in one box.  I got it because of the 3 blacksmith tongs.  The rest was a bonus.   A guy tried to buy the big files from me after the auction.   He was a knife maker.  There was a saw tooth set tool in there also.  I want to try that out. 

I don't have the flea markets like you do.  The auction bug has hit me lately.   I'm planning on going to another one next weekend.

Looks like you both did good to me. Use to always be farm auctions around here and they would start with "jewelry wagon".  Now everyone just has these online actions around here.

Yep.  It was about a mile down the road from the auction.  It's a really old male.  I'm doing a skull mount on it and tanning the hide.

OO, and mullet nice finds. I have to give the edge to Clint. Yotes are the hardest to find at auctions or flea markets!😂

Hey Eddie I agree about nice finds, the slaughter knife has to be great steel!  However the coyote does trump your finds....Get trumps your finds!!!!   LOL
