Awesome shop inside the antique mall. Got the opportunity to meet the shop's curator, Billy. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We picked up a gorgeous Damascus steel knife, and drooled over several other pieces, including a working shock therapy machine. Definitely worth a visit, and will be back next time we're in town!

One of the best curio shops I've been to across the US. Beautiful pieces at amazing prices. Billy was incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and helpful. You need to check out this place, if not for the curiosities than for Billy's beard.
Thank you so much Sarah! This review means the world to us! You rock!
