Where do the bullets go? Just kidding, good looking collection you've got there. Like those OTF's, been thinking on picking one up, don't own any yet-hard to put down my Boker... Keep it up.

Addiction? No, I can stop anytime I want. (If you believe that I have some waterfront property near where I live that will be real cheap)

Nice collection!

LOL. Looks like somebody already sold you a bridge.

Only one Opinel? Those are real easy to accumulate, at $10-12 a copy. Cut like the dickens, too.

What is the one second from the right that recalls the Mercedes-Benz logo? I know I have seen it somewhere before, but can't recall where; did you post it?

In any case, that is an interesting little collection.

I have very few group shots of my addiction. I'd guess my collection has grown by several hundreds since these were taken.














Every collection needs protection, here's mine.

I'm partial to Case knives.



Added another dozen or so since this picture was taken at year-end 2015.

Also have a few Case hunting knives.

^^^ You have a very serious problem. ^^^

May I recommend Knife Anonymous for you?

If you do you must follow their rules:

No pointed questions.

Do not fly off the handle.

Don't put peoples' nerves on edge.

I quit smoking 3 months ago and that's when I started my knife collecting.

I didn't think I was a collector, till I saw the pile I have downstairs. Lately it's been Kershaws, the Emerson designs in particular.

rangerpat: it's a Wenger, not a Victorinox. Apparently make for skiers, as there's a picture of a skier on the scale. That funny looking thing is a hex wrench on a swivel; apparently it tightens something on a ski harness. I'm not a skier; last time I was on skiis was 1965 in Alaska, part of survival training, and they wre cross country skiis.

Marshwheeling: That's a Barry Wood folder, made for Colt. Apparently Colt's ideas of production rates didn't match his and the arrangement didn't last too long. I have another Opinel, with a rosewood handle and just a plain one; I didn't show all my collection as I didn't have photos of much of it. This Opinel handle was made from scrap wood generated in the making of the replica of the French frigate l'Hermione that brought Lafayette to America during the Revolution.

Richard Simmons: I'd be afraid to come anywhere near your collection with that ferocious guard dog.

I added fixed blades on my last two orders. On my next order there will be three just like the last two orders (3 each).

I like to carry different knives day to day.

So far these are my fav carries. At the range yesterday an RO asked me about the knife (second from left) I was wearing. I showed it to him and he really likes it that he want one.

By the way, the knife at the right end is an HK Turmoil OTF knife and the only expensive knife in the collection. I carry it only when I'm wearing jeans.

The Turmoil is a sweet knife. Slim, strong springs and sharp as hell.

Some great collections guys. Glad I decided to start a new collection. Would love to add a model from each maker that is well known. Like my Buck Alpha and that newer Gerber Strong Arm has gotten my attention. Plus that Buck Woodsman has my attention. Almost as fun as gun shopping!
