    pocket knives

    Hey all, sorry i haven't posted in a while. I have been busy making improvements to my flea market booths. Just wanted to share the fact that i have been finding lots of pocket knives lately while checking dumpsters for metal. Everything from the cheap china knives to Kershaw and Old Timers. I have to get on the ball and get more display cases built. Maybe while I'm checking those dumpsters i can find what i need to build those and save a few dollars. Just wanted to share. Happy Scrapping Everyone.

    If you are making smaller sized display cases, printers that are scanner/copiers have a decent sized piece of glass in them.

    Easy to find items that have more then scrap value. The trick is knowing it when you find it. Good job. Funny how things can run in streaks with the same items.

    Yes i notice that a lot parrothead. I may have a month that i find computers everywhere. Then wont find any for a long time but i'll find a bunch of dvd players that just need to be cleaned. Right now its knives, which is fine with me because they sell fast. Helps pay those bills.
