A little something I found

So I inherited some stuff from my grandmother's house due to her passing.

Found a rusty old kabar.

Stamped Camillus and usmc on the gaurd.

From my googling it appears to be ww2-korean war era.

I enjoy cleaning up rusty old blades.

This was just a hunk of rust and I figured it was a cheap knockoff.

I should add that I believe this to be my grandfather's from the Korean War.

Unfortunately I couldn't find the sheath.

I also have a box of old ammunition I'm going to post pictures of. I doubt it's worth anything. But im sure I'm not the only one who likes old outdoors items

The large cartridge is a .50 BMG....

NICE find on the old Mauser...Resist the urge to "clean it up"..That might reduce the collector's value.. A gentle rubdown with some gun oil should be sufficient.


Thanks for the cartridge identification.

Yeah I won't be touching the Mauser. Gave it a light oil rub when I got the lamp a few months ago.

Tempted to sell it. But the lamp is just too cool
