I am looking for someone to replace a classic Case xx 1836 Bowie knife handle. The handle on the knife I have is in rough shape and would like to replace it.
Does anyone know of someone who makes replacement handles?

Gotta love eBay. My listing was removed because it violated their safety standards and was deemed as a forbidden item to sell on eBay because it violates their policy on not selling weapons. The item I listed was a replica toy pistol for a 12” action figure. The length of this item is 1 1/4” and its height is 1”. Just very small, non working toy and impossible to even hold that in your hand, let alone use it as a weapon. It is a non working tiny toy, glad eBay is there to keep us all safe.

Let’s just say, my wife is the most understanding, caring and compassionate person on the planet!
This is not how a normal persons house should look (but I have never been accused of being normal) and yet, when you filled two tables at a local auction (Crandall's Auction Service), 5 tables at another local auction (Seller's Auction by Mickey Greene) plus 4 tables for your own sale on Monday night, you end up having to go through totes/boxes to get ready to do it all again next week! Also, truck is full (don’t tell Naomi Jacoby, that may push her over the edge 😂) I am thankful UPS and USPS didn’t deliver any of the boxes I am expecting 😅.I better get back to work organizing or I may be moving into the closet with all this stuff🤷‍♂️😂🤦‍♂️🤣

I was finally able to get down and bring in about 5 bins of fresh items for my booth @ Father Time Antiques in Duluth, MN -Canal Park. I am dealer number 18, so if you are in Duluth or have a chance to visit, please come check out our store, there are about 50 different vendors in this clean, organized antique/vintage/ collectibles store! Here are some new pictures, if you see something you like don’t be afraid to message me, I am able to ship(buyer pays shipping) but if it is still available, I can pull items and send them off.

Mini rant- How does FedEx stay in business? I have two orders I am expecting, 1 from Alabama and 1 from California, both supposed to be here Tuesday. No update on the status until this morning and now both are scheduled for end of day Thursday. Both orders shipped 7 days ago, the one from CA sat in Nebraska for 5 days and finally made it to IA last night but is still going to take 2 days to get to MN. The one from AL has made is to KY, only took 6 days to make it 10 hours. Then I call to ask what is going on, they send you to someone in Central America to answer questions, what a joke. I will be making sure none of the orders I ship or receive do not use FedEx you g forward!

So I posted parts of myGI Joes, Evel Kneivel and Dukes of Hazzard collections the other day and my mother asked where Six Million Dollar Man was. I just hadn’t dug him out when I took pictures the other day but here he is now. I know I have another box somewhere but I will find the rest!!!!

Some days I just want to throw in the towel. So after years of buying and selling on Facebook, I had to file my first claim against a seller for not shipping what I paid for. Will probably be filing another claim against another seller tomorrow after getting the run around for 4 weeks, paid on December 22, still no product and no tracking for the box that supposedly has most of the order in it. Then I go up to my old office (building remains locked all the time) to go box up all the GI Joes I posted puctires of to bring them home and get them sold, only to find out an employee up there has stolen 24 of them! While I was making that wonderful discovery, Naomi text to say the dryer smells hot and is not working right. So out about $2000 this week and now going to buy a washer/ dryer. Guess I will be ending this short lived retirement and going back to work…

Oh man, I am going down a rabbit hole now, started with the Dukes of Hazzard, moved into Evel Knievel and now GI Joe was feeling left out- so here’s a couple photos of some of the GI Joes I have that will all be sold (as soon as I can bring myself to part with them🤷‍♂️)
All the boxes stacked are all full with different GI Joes or collector action figures(they are not dolls😂!)

My soon to be 16 year old started her first day of work at the antique store today. So I was able to get a bunch of new merchandise into the booth this morning. Come check out Fathertime Antiques down in Canal Park Duluth, MN. I am dealer #18.

Restocked and ready to rock! Now is the time to check out Fathertime Antiques in Duluth’s Canal Park. Free parking in the lot behind the store and with the cooler temps, not as many people, so you have time to browse to check out my booth and the other 40+ vendors in this clean, well lit shop! I am dealer #18 and if you are in the shop and see something you like but don’t like the price, send me a message and I will see what I can do.

Can anyone say TOYS TOYS TOYS!!!!
Just purchased 22 bins and boxes of 80’s, 90’s toys-games, action figures, TMNT, Star Wars, Marvel, DC- you name it I probably have it…

All stocked up for small business Saturday! Stop down and check out all the treasures at Fathertime Antiques 395 S Lake Ave. Duluth, MN 55802, placed is packed with all kinds of collectibles and antiques!!! ( I am dealer #18)

Wow, goodies just flying out of the booth! Was able to get down to restock and I think it is looking pretty good. Come on down to Fathertime Antiques in Duluth, MN, canal park district and look for dealer number 18 to check out my stuff in person. Or if you see something you can’t live without message me and if it hasn’t sold already, I can work out ways to get it to you if you can’t make it into the shop.

I was able to get another load into the shop this morning, my booth is filled with collectibles, antiques and some hard to find items. Come check it out, Fathertime Antiques 395 Lake Ave S. Duluth, MN in canal park. I am dealer number 18 and with roughly 50 different vendors, you are bound to find something you can’t live without!

Well, that work thing has kept me from posting in awhile but just had to share a recent collection of vintage toys I was able to acquire. I love buying toys from my childhood...(or toys I always wanted as a kid, lol)

Wow, wow, wow, it’s not very often I get my hands on items I have never seen before but this week I was able to obtain 10 items I have never come across and can’t find any other examples of. I was able to obtain 9 posters from 1929 and what I believe to be an original 2 sided sign from the 1930’s-1940’s. These will be going up for sale soon in my shop at Fathertime Antiques in Canal Park Duluth MN but feel free to message me if interested!

Busy, busy, busy gearing up for the summer tourist season at Fathertime Antiques in Duluth’s Canal Park! I have expanded my space and I have just started consolidating my items into one big booth! I will be bringing in a bunch more in this week to fill the extra space up with all kinds of goodies. Please come check our dealer #18 and my new space!

I started going through the boxes I posted pictures of earlier this week. Good reminder that when you are looking through a box of books, make sure you still check the whole box. The locks in the pictures where found at the bottom of a box full of books. That DM & N lock is very rare and was an awesome find. The binoculars say Army & Navy and they are from WW1 made in Paris. The postcards in the book are all pre 1919 and there are about 250 in the book. The jolly monkey (same model of this toy was in one of the Toy Story movies) and works like it is new old stock. These pictures are random items found so far in just a few boxes and there was a truckload and a van load to go through!

This is what you call a tease, just unloaded a full storage unit full of antiques late last night. I haven’t gone through all the boxes and bins yet (because this work thing I do is really taking up all my time right now) but have found some awesome stuff so far. The pictures are what the second truckload looks like ( this is a large cargo sprinter van). There will be more pictures to come with the treasures hiding in the boxes and bins...

A little rain never stops me from picking, especially when I don’t get to get out as often as I would like to! This was all dug out in an out building and outside along the building, ended up soaked head to toe but was still fun. Definitely not the best stuff I have ever bought, but the journey to find treasure in hidden places is what I love! The bucket is embossed GNRY for Great Northern RailWay, nice old coal bucket I am guessing.

My new booth is coming along down at FatherTime Antiques in Duluth’s Canal Park. Have been bringing in lots of new items and will be filling the new display case soon that I put in today. Come down and shop the store, lots of great, unique Father’s Day gifts for the dad who has everything, he will for sure love an item pulled right from his memories and FatherTime Antiques is the place to find it! Update- was able to get a few things in the new display case today.

Hi all, long week this week but I found some time and I opened a second booth down at FatherTime Antiques 395 S Lake Ave Duluth, MN. Lots of hours so far setting up but making progress, all different stuff than my other booth, so come check out my spots. I am dealer number 18, one booth has a 6’ paper mache musky and the other has the black and white railroad pictures, come look for a treasure! The store is bursting with antiques and collectibles.
