Very far north of where I’d rather be
Detector(s) used
Garrett ace 400
Garrett carrot
Minelab Equinox 800
Minelab Pro-find 35
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
Found Saturday at one of the local parks. At first glance didn’t see anything special but when I started cleaning I found several quite interesting.
There’s a serrated knife blade approximately 6 1/2” long, a chunk of lead, and possibly a buckle of some sort. Also there’s a very sharp piece of ornate glass that is why I wear gloves when digging around here.

The piece with the 2 small holes is the spring part of a lockback or slip joint pocket knife. Congrats on the finds!

I couldn’t figure that one out, thanks
 

Dadley is a versatile time proven knife shape/design. Still made today and attracts fresh notice in some bushcraft.

Congrats! Quite a recovery.
Thanks for the info
