That 18 is a nice size. Good pickup.

Congrats Bomba, yeah that 14 autumn gold is a looker. My fav of your haul. Hope you didn't put yourself in the doghouse on that one. Nice.

WC that is a very good looking S&M. If everything is tight on her you got yourself a winner at a very nice price IMO.

[quote="Tsar Bomba"]I got it!
I paid through the nose for it but i got it!

Glad you got one, do you recall what thread I posted the link in? I can't even find it. Thanks. Great you nabbed one. Rare. Proabably goe up in value even if you use it. Right on.

Re: It's In The Mail
On another forum, a few of us got into a group buy for Victorinox Outrider with Bosch branding; since the seller with them on German eBay would only ship within the EU. I'm assuming these were a part of a promotion of some sort at one point, and were being cleared out. I got a pretty good deal. Counting the cost of the knife (21EUR; or about $23), shipping from Germany (about $8), and Paypal fees (11%); it came to just over $34. Outriders are normally about $60. Even with all that, I still saved about $20 from the cheapest Outrider currently available for sale in the US.

Re: It's In The Mail
Haven't bought a knife (new or used) in a few months. I like my 1978 vintage Case 6332 EDC so much that I bought a "back-up" 1980 Case 63032 from Kennedy Knives AAPK store this morning. Old Speedy Kennedy already has it in the mail! Any of you folks ever bought a "back-up" knife?? OH

Re: It's In The Mail
Thanks gents. I suspected that I wasn’t the only accumulator of “backups” at AAPK! OH

Re: It's In The Mail
Lol. On some patterns I really like, I have bought backups for my backups. I’m a sick man though.Old Hunter wrote:Haven't bought a knife (new or used) in a few months.

Re: It's In The Mail
For typically inexpensive patterns, yes. I have two of the 34OT (my first knife; the second is backup) and the 27 (lots always have them, and it's my favorite work knife; I have 3 27s and about a half-dozen TL-29 types; including two actual TL-29s), and I always buy two or three of the same Morakniv model when I get one (since a 511 is under $10). And quite often, when I see a good knife (usually Colonial or one of the Swiss brands; quite often with some kind of advertising on it) at a really cheap price in a rather large quantity; I will most often buy two or three of them at a time; one to use, one for my collection, and one as backup to the user. There's Camillus 27s (and simlar) scattered across my EDC rotation, toolboxes, tool bags, and I think there's one in a dresser drawer.Old Hunter wrote:Haven't bought a knife (new or used) in a few months.
