This lot comprises a variety of vintage collectibles, tools, and musical accessories. The primary item is a fixed-blade hunting knife featuring a taxidermy deer-foot handle, housed in a brown leather sheath embossed with a stag and woodland motif. The collection includes several folding knives: a larger pocket knife with a textured brown handle, a small blue-handled knife featuring a white fish logo, and a silver-tone multi-tool. Ephemera is represented by multiple stacks of vintage cigarette cards, including series by Player’s Cigarettes featuring military and historical scenes. Musical items consist of a box of Rico Royal Bb clarinet reeds, strength 2 1/2, described as french file cut, and a metal mouthpiece for a brass instrument. The lot is completed by a black pen-like object, a set of keys on a ring with a round wooden souvenir tag inscribed New Zealand, and a small padlock.
