FRN, Stainless, Micarta, Aluminum, or Carbon Fiber( I don't know if this knife comes in any of these handle materials, I was just curious)
 
Now I'm slightly less amazed at my (used) Delica from the fleamarket for the same price. Oh well, Cest La Vie I suppose.
 
Flea markets are great. Many of the vendors are selling a basic line they know, like towels or belt buckles, but they also carry odds & ends they picked up cheap and just want to get rid of fast. The street fairs in NYC go on for miles and a lot of the tables are schlock, with gems hidden in the corners! :D
 
Had a "moment" w/ a seller @ a flea market table (off of 6th in the Village) a few years ago- In & among the .99 cent plastic Barlows there was a nice older Case folding trapper. I calmly asked the guy the price & he smiled back at me "$75.00"- I grinned back at him & there was the unspoken thing: "Yeah, you thought you were getting a deal here didn't you".

There are good deals to be found- I just never find them.
 
I picked up a plain edged NIB Endura VG10 off Ebay for $28.00 + freight and thought I was doing well - $20.00 is a great score. I think you would search long and far to buy a better knife for $20.00.

Congrats! That's a great deal. I'll be making my Rick Hinderer Firetac Extreme my EDC when it arrives, but I'll be picking up a 50/50 edge Endura as another EDC, since I like it so much. Does yours have S.S. handles?
