A 1980s Blackie Collins 8535 Wenoka Dive Knife in mint condition for $30.

This is an iconic knife and it was what you wanted when you had a big hunk of stainless and rubber started to your leg while swimming in shark infested waters back in the 80s...

Where you looking for it or just happen to find it?
I have found a few killer deals mostly just got lucky.
 
That's wicked.
 
I stumbled on the guy at the flea market, he was getting ready to pack it in, he said everyone picked it up everyone asked how much and all balked at $45 so when I picked it up and started to tell him about the knife and the Sears Craftsman Scout/Utility knife next to it, he took $30 for the Blackie Collins and $10 for the Sears. I have a spear gun already so I'll just take the spear gun and dive knife the next time I go tubing down the Delaware, that should be a sight... :)
 
I don't find many pics of this exact model but many similar I wonder if this was the first BC Wenoka?
