I'm planning on going to the Brimfield, MA antique show next week. It's my first time so there will be a lot to take in and browse but I am going to have an eye out for pocket knives. Has anyone ever shopped for knives there? Any particular places you would recommend seeking out or avoiding?

Thanks for any info you might offer.
 
I go to Brimfield quite a bit, and have been going for many years. If you are looking for average "users" you will find quite a few, the prices will be all over the map, but there are always some good buys. I look for the older "collector" knives in good condition. There are a lot fewer of those. It's really "luck of the draw". I rarely find any really nice older knives, but its still fun to look. Last time I found a mint Remington scout knife (1920-1940 time period) for $10. An amazing find, but very infrequent there.
