Top Production Knives to Look for at Garage/Estate Sales

[JDMSMBACPA]

I don't get to do it often any more, but I used to really like to go to garage and estate sales. What production knives would you keep an eye out for at garage or estate sales?

I thought of this because of the thread on Cold Steel's change to 440A. Other manufacturer's have changed steels (e.g. Marbles) so old knives may have more desireable steels than newer ones.

Are the old A2 Gerbers good? I've heard some people look for those. I've read they are hard to sharpen but hold an edge well.

When I hit garage/estate/yard sales I mainly look for old fixed blades as most slipjoints are usually worn out and you just never see many "good" tactical folders. The fixed blades that I'm really looking for are Randalls and old Marbles and have had suprisingly good luck (maybe 1 knife out of every 60 sales that I go to). That may not seem to good, but considering all the crap that you normally see at these things thats really not too bad.

When it comes to Flea Markets, Estate Sales and Yard sales. I look for anything made in the USA with the right price.
