Why does the state of California have so many knives?

State of CA is having a "yardsale" tomorrow and Saturday somewhere in Sac. Anyone know where?

They have a bunch of overbid crap on ebay right now, too.

I think the building for that sale is in Natomas off Truxel. There is a building over there labeled something like California Surplus Sales or something like that. I've meant to go in there but never have. Maybe tonight.

a lot of those things for sale were seized from criminals, etc. I thought it would just be office equipment at first. then i saw they had baseball cards for sale and weird stuff like that. i was like.. uhh. which state office has a Tiffany & Co. knife?!??!

From one of their items...

1700 National Dr. Sacramento CA and our business hours are 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. (Pacific Time), Monday through Friday (excluding Holidays)

I'm guessing they will be open Saturday, too.

Yep, that's the building I was talking about.

Get off 80 at Truxel and head away from the freeway (towards wal-mart). Turn right on gateway park, right on n. market, right on sierra point and then right on National. You can't miss the building

Someone should buy a box and donate it to a school. Oh, wait, most of those scissors look like they are from womens nail kits...

My wife got hers taken at the airport in Hawaii.
