Anthony Bourdain‘s personal possessions will be sold in an auction in October — nearly 16 months afterhis death.
Mason told the newspaper that Bourdain’s items have a total market value between $200,000 and $400,000.
Bourdain’s Bob Kramer knife is expected to go for the highest price, according to theTimes. The custom steel and meteorite blade was given to Bourdain in 2016.
