I found a Gerber LMF Il Infantry Knife placed on top of
my mailbox outside my apartment building and T
am not
sure what I should do. I did not order anything, and it
appears to have been left there by someone. I would like
to handle this properly and legally. Would you
recommend putting up a notice in the building to try to
find the owner, or should I bring it to the police?

You should bring that to the police
Just a guess, wouldn’t it be likely that it belongs to one of the other occupants? As far as I know its not illegal to own such a knife, so hanging a note where the suspected owner can find their knife would be the most sensible solution IMO.
If it doesnt get picked up, you probably can still bring it to the local police station.
Yeah.
Straight to jail

Hope their knives are better than their fondue.
Either a death threat or a murder weapon that has now all your finger prints over it
Take it and put a paper ‘found knife’
If nobody come it will be yours. 😉
Or just take it, that’s a nice knife.
If I were you, I’d delete the post, clean the knife in gasoline, and take it home. It’s expensive and you migt be able to resell it or use it for yourself.
I’ve got the same one in khaki, it’s my “big game” fishing knife.
It’s alright, does the job… but honestly, nothing special.
I definitely prefer my Victorinox Venture, the steel is just way better.
But seriously… why on earth would you want to bring it to the police?
It’s completely legal to own, carry, and use.
As long as it’s not covered in blood or something sketchy, you’re fine.
You bünzlis are something else, man..just give it back to your neighbor!
Jesus. Change ur neighbourhood 😅
One theory would be someone of the appartement building sold it on tutti and left it there to be picked up..
This is not hallal
Score.
take it to the cops and ask them if you can keep it or not, if not they will dispose of it.
Out of curiosity what is this knife used for? Camping? If it’s military does it mean for “defense” ? Cheers
Garbage knife. I had it, it’s heavy as hell, batoned wood with it. By the third fire the blade came loose in the handle.
That’s clearly a threat.

The postman must have thought you live in a rough neighbourhood 🙂
This is a fairly cheap knife that you can buy in outdoor stores and hardware stores (like Transa, Jumbo or Bauhaus). My guess is that somebody has lost it near your Building, someone else found it and put it on the mailboxes so the respective owner would find it. They are perfectly legal to own and perfectly legal to carry around in most circumstances. I’d remove it from were you found it, so no kid finds it. You can bring it to the police station if you want to get rid of it, or toss it in the trash. If you want to reunite it with it’s owner I’d just put up a sign so it can be collected at your place (this way no kids would find it).
