That old Omega is the most valuable thing in the safe.
Well at least this was more exciting then Geraldo Rivera opening Al Capones vault..
Apparently, you can call the company that made the safe to get the backdoor code to open it. Liberty Safe did that for the FBI.
That Omega watch could be worth a fair bit, depending on its' age. Treat it with a little more respect.
And THIS shows you what most safes are made of. The doors are stout....the rest of it is fairly thin gauge sheet metal with a layer of heat resistant cement inside easily busted out with a hammer. I've cut the sides and bottoms out of several, old and newer.....all the same.
Only way to reasonably secure one is bolt to a concrete floor, then form and pour 4 inches of concrete with plenty of rebar around everything but the door. That will add maybe an hour for someone to get in it.
Circular Saws are a lot quicker for this than the grinder.
Key lesson here: safes and other locking devices are only to *slow down* entry; they absolutely do not *prevent* entry.
Cold steel recon tanto. Im my opinion the find was the actual safe. You should of had a locksmith open it and install a new lock. Safe was probably worth 300
When I opened up the safe, the bottom was all rusted out. Not worth salvaging, otherwise yeah a locksmith would’ve been better. But I had a good time grinding it open
Careful with those sparks. Some people store black powder in there safes 🤕💥
Thats was the reason I had to hose the safe down. When I got the metal side out of the opening I saw metal embers on top of the ammo boxes. Didn't need shots going off in my neighborhood haha
Tht Omega even not working is prob worth everything else and more, Omega is a serious brand and worth getting serviced to get its value back and parts are like with a Rolex, always available.
The AT&T knife was given out for recognition, could have been a milestone like a certain number of years 5, 10, 15, 20 etc or retirement
Looked like an old NIKON F 35mm SLR judging by the Viewfinder.
If you know there is something in a safe pay a locksmith to open and change the combo so it is still usable, can't believe so many people cut them open
That Omega watch depending upon age and exact type could be worth something.Example inherited an 1952 Omega watch , was appraised at 6-7k. Now it was in excellent condition and was only sold in Europe the man told me. Granted this was 20yrs ago, but I would really look into the Omega. Thank you great vid
The cold steel knife is worth some money, it looks like the original recon tanto!
Yea, that's a couple hundred $s... it's always funny when people get excited about a 30$ buck or Gerber and don't know about the original Cold steels
Loved to have that Cold Steel Tanto
I have a bunch of Cold Steel doodads ranging from hatchets to machetes and even a spear and I've always thought of them as being pretty tacticool. I've never been impressed with their quality but I certainly never realized older Cold Steel stuff had some genuine value. Were the originals better quality with better Steel.
@@1planters yes, the old Cold Steel knives were higher quality. I own several of the older blades, including one of the Recon Tantos seen here. The Blade takes a wicked-sharp edge. The sheath is well built and solid, but you risk cutting the security strap if you're not careful on the draw.
I also own an original Trail Master from Cold Steel, and that puppy is one outstanding camp knife.
@@lairdcummings9092 mine was Stolen. T Kell knives are my choice now.
The Tanto Recon knife is worth holding on to .😊
The most valuable knife you have there is the older Cold Steel Recon Tanto. Back then they came with the nice leather sheaths. Might be able to get $150-$200 for it. (?). The Buck maybe $40-$50. Those Gerber folding sportsman’s sold new for about $20 in the late ‘70’s. The best thing about that is the sheath which is in great condition.
I own one of those Cold Steel Recon Tantos. The sheath is solid, but has a serious design flaw in the Velcro retention strap. If you're not careful, you can easily cut into the strap.
I found a safe in an old building and it had a pair of work boots inside.
The recon tango is a cold steel outstanding knife.
The Omega is worth Money.
I know a lot of it was junk, but that part was cool too, it shows a glimpse of history in an average person's life!
Absolutely, not all about striking gold.
Recon tanto is a high quality blade that's my favorite thing in there
Those knives are awesome. My dad inherited an old knife from his uncle, I’m pretty sure it was his boot knife from the Korean War. Never know what you will find
Thats awesome! I don't really know what I have yet but they are some pretty cool knives.
The Cold Steel Tanto was the first one that they made. It will say that it was made in Kalifornia.
They had commercials that would show them ram it through a car door and hood, then slice a piece of paper! Very collectible.
Some SF units carry Tantos because they can stab through most 'stab proof' vests.
Cold steel is a good brand expensive to
Get the watch appraised. See if it's worth restoring or you would be better off selling as is. Omegas are in some cases, highly collectable.
I’ll have to check that out.
I got a Nikon Camera. I love to take Photographs. Momma don't take my Kodachrome away!
That Omega watch might be worth fixing and holding onto . If you don't want it I'd gladly take it off your hands . I love watches even broken ones ... Might even trade you for a working watch if it is worth fixin.
I'm about a minute in. I'm betting either giant spiders or a dead body.
I've seen someone open one of these safes with a circular saw, it only took them about a minute or so and it was pretty thick steel.
That's awesome that ammo is worth something to day if not all coroaded..
Most of the ammo that was still in the boxes were good, but the rounds that were free corroded.
Oh my goodness, we collected those and some cups from long John silvers maybe....lol, we sure were into silly giveaways in the 80s.
One may have been used at the nickel slots to carry away the big pay out. Lucky, sentiment.
You realize that those floppy disks aren't floppy. I used to work with the earlier ones, 8" them 5 1/4" that really were floppy
@Craig Heller You realize that those floppy disks in fact ARE floppy, inside the protective plastic cases are in fact 3 and 1/2" FLOPPY disks. Holding a massive 1.4 MB of data! Ahh, such memories. :D Have a good one.
I have an old college buddy that has an OLD 5mb hard drive
Rikon is a Chinese company but unlike other Chinese companies they make pretty decent tools and now have a line of high end stationary woodwork tools.
Hope you didn't lose that older silver dollar! Looked like a Morgan... worth a bit if in decent shape.
The Gerber knife looks like it was made prior to the company being sold to Finska.
If the blade says "Portland Oregon" on the other side it is collectable.
The fact it is a special order for AT&T and has the sheath also could increase the value.
I just checked the knife. It does say Portland Oregon. I’ll have to see what people are selling it for. Thanks
The floppy discs 😂
The part with the floppy disks, and you looking at them in confusion then muttering wtf? Had me laughing. Then the discovery of the book of love lol I shook my head and laughed some more I put this video in my liked videos so I can watch it again. The knives were cool. Thanks for posting this.
1990s...should still get an old floppy disk drive for a look....think cryptocurrency and the digital wallet...the previous owner might have used it as a security safe.
That Ronald Reagan knife is a Barlow knife.
Omega watch!!!! Nice
That tanto blade was pretty cool
Knives and gun's are fun
Damn straight Kevin
6:06 top right of frame in the safe that looks like the business end of a 12 ga.
Why wouldn’t you cut at the door and hinges?
Omega watches are expensive watches. They are Swiss made. If it is genuine you might want to handle it more gently. It's probably worth more than what you hoped to find in that gun safe.
I would pull the shells and sell the lead. I take ammo apart for my shooting club all the time and reuse bullets, cases, etc.
"So many, ridiculous" you apparently do not know how little a floppy disk holds
Great!
Do you still have the Buck 110 knife? If so I may be interested in getting it from you if the price is right.
looks like an old cold steel tanto knife.
Cold steel recon tanto maybe 1980's or 1990's were was it made ventura California?
Hey guy. You are suppose to use a ball pein or other metal striking hammer on metal rather than a nailing hammer.
Now throw the box and paperwork work about the folder knife away@!!
Omega watch has some decent value.
Finally....... a TH-camr using a Grinder with the safety guard still fitted.........
That cold steel is worth a few bucks
Did you have somebody in your family that was a filled photographer embedded with certain detachments during the Vietnam war could have been special forces maybe just saying those cameras those look awfully familiar some of that footage I've seen on camera documented on modern marvels
Old nikons are cool
Now i feel old, i remember the advert for the Tanto where a guy stabs it through a car door.
I was thinking to myself, he better take extra blades
“Well, that’s a rare 1989 Treadlock safe, and if it wasn’t cut open, any serious collector would have given you $18,000 for it….”
That must be some good bud you're smoking cause you're heads up in the clouds if think someone is gonna drop $18k for this rusted out beat up gun safe.
@@jamespatrick231 sounds like he was just making a joke.
Hay l found a safe just didn’t know how to open thanks, it’s in my neighbors house😁!!
My father had that same knife but only it didn't say ATT&T..... it had the old "New England Telephone" logo on it.
the cameras might be worth something too..especially to the right camera guy.
A. Hand grinder with a hard.wheel is a dangerous tool,glad to see your wearing gloves,safety first.
Except for holding it back to front, so if it grabs, it will kick the saw towards him! Gloves keep your hands clean but don't grip like bare hands and are usually cumbersome. Keeping the guard on the grinder and adjusted correctly- along with eye protection are way more important.
Good thing gunpowder wasn’t stored in that safe!!!
That recon tanto must be a cold steel
I’d love buy that cold steel knife
Man I was hoping for a Browning A5 or something like that but still cool stuff .
I heard some of the loose rounds rattling in the bottom of the safe, so I was really hoping to find some sweet guns in there too
@@jamespatrick231 The fun is in the search . When I was young I was tearing down a old house and found a real 45 Colt but I was young and my uncle took it . Have always been looking for stuff ever since . Keep looking and good luck .
I have an original cold steel recon tanto keep that I would
I never heard of the cold steel tango until I open that safe. Really cool looking knife!
Why was it outside?
Always worried about gun powder in them old safe’s, unless it’s been pulled out of the river.
Exactly what I was thinking
don't know anything about "gun powder" do you? O.o
The watch made it worth while
Get someone who can run those old floppy disks. That guy could have been a serial killer, and Left all his victims on his disks.
Asbestos walls. Door. ..? Maybey not. So many never have a clue. I notice most opening one by this type method, never, comment, that they researched it b4 hand!
Coin and knives! Got to love Ronald Reagan!
Must be a bit thick wy didnt you just cut the door hinges
Looks as if it was only an office locker.
Always hold a grinder with the sparks facing you so if it catches it pulls the grinder away instead of pushing it to you
Thanks for the tip. I’ll try to keep that in mind the next time I use the grinder
Wat year on the coins?
Floppy discs are 30 years old? NOOOooooo
Not exactly the lost Ark.
It’s a close second to the most Ark
I was sure there would be at least one gun in there!
Guys got more squeaky doors than an 80yr old red light district worker. I hear graphite works well. (On hinges......)
To someone with an old flight simulator. The diskettes may be of value.
That tanto knife is a good one. I had that one and it went through a guys door then in his hood.
First it was his parents unopened for 30 years to he must of workers for at&t plus dude must of loved his knives SMH
Well I liked the knifes but I was hoping for some antique guns 🔫 but there wasn't any so it was a little disappointing but it was cool to watch
Yeah I was disappointed there was no guns in there especially after hearing all the ammunition rolling around. Thanks
Has no clue what he has other than a quick fast buck.
That Omega watch is nice. You still have it? Do you want to get rid of it
I still got the watch. I want to get it fixed and use it. But we'll see what happens haha
There's a guy on TH-cam that restores old antique items maybe he could restore your Ronald Reagan Knife.
You might be surprised by what could be on those floppys...🤔
BS, I saw that shotgun barrel, show us the rest!!
Omega watch must be worth something
It seems a bit odd that they would put ammunition in a rifle safe, yet not have any firearms. That’s not normal
You should never store guns and ammo together.
@@Rodneygd I do it all the time, it’s completely safe to do so. Also even if that were the case the safe in the video still wouldn’t make sense. Why would they store just the ammunition in the safe and leave the firearms loose?
@@Cgrazi Who said to leave firearms loose. You need to secure both firearms and ammunition. Just not in the same place.
@@Rodneygd it’s completely fine to have them all in one place. I’m curious now, what do you think is wrong with that?
@@Rodneygd Are you confusing with how one should transport firearms and ammo by car?
If it appears like moisture got in the safe, then the camera is worthless.
Yeah when I opened up the safe and looked inside the walls were caked in rust. I was holding some high hopes maybe some stuff could be cleaned up. But I agree with you, I don't think the camera is salvable
Was that a genuine Rambo Survival Knife you found in there?
That is worth a fortune.
No.
It's an original Cold Steel Recon Tanto. Still valuable.
*The "Mc Vote 86" glass goes on average for $10.00.*
You ever realize that everything you or I own is someone else's stuff. Soon enough.
Hope they never store gunpowder when you grind in like that! lol
NEXT TIME CUT THE HINGES 👍
thought I saw a shotgun barrel in the video at 12:30, upper part of the frame
Just to let you know those floppy disk are worth money now. There are still legacy computers in the auto industry that need those disk.
Damn I wish I knew that. There were a ton of them in the safe but I just tossed them thinking nobody has used those since windows 98 haha.
I saw a hand gun in there but you never showed us, why?
There wasn’t hand gun in the safe
