My $5 Hobo

Post by muskrat man »

My dad and I do our annual flea marketing on saturday, sunday and wendsday. We discovered this at the semi local farmers market yesterday. A WWI (so I've found, I could be mistaken) era Camillus Hobo knife. A single piece knife/spoon combo. I nearly fell over when he sold it to us for $5 :shock:

I've been wanting an old hobo for a while, and since Camillus is out of buisness, this one fits the bill perfectly
