I went to a local church rummage sale, it was all donation stuff so i didn't expect much. I looked around and picked up some modern electronics for cheap but then i seen this set of a bottle opener, iced tea spoon, and steak knife, all in a fancy box, and labelled "Dansk Designs". I had never heard of this company, but it said Germany and for a dollar i couldn't pass these quality pieces up. So i went home and did my research and it turns out these are some vintage fjord design, made 1957-1983 i believe. i really scored big on these, and i believe this set will sell for over $100.

That is a good quality set with the teak handles! Way to go. The knife would work for slicing cheese also. You could check eBay to see what other Dansk sets sell for these days. HH Andi
 

Ive checked ebay and other sources and i cant find anyone with this EXACT set. im wondering if its rare or not?
 

high quality stuff for a dollar... that was a heck of a buy :headbang: :headbang:
 

I think the people in garage sales would enjoy this post.

Teak handles - nice find. Thanks for posting - I just found my Mom's cutting board I grew up with is part of the same collection.
