Thanks John.
@kj: 364 days/year i war cargo jeans. This knives all fit to the cargo pocket, some were made to the measurement of the pocket.
Usually there is 1 fix and 1 folder with me.

Now, that is one stunning pic Erwin. Love the setup/layout, and color contrasts. Oh, and not to mention the object of the picture .

[Quick Steel]

The folder reminds me of a Spanish pattern. Ditto Willy's remarks on the photo. Very nice.

[bigbore]

Again: Thanks.
Folder is the Lionsteel Gitano

WOW LJ. That is a hefty collection. You have many variants that are not commonly seen. Congratulations. A very fine and focused collection.

[KLJ77]

Thank You, Garry. I was fortunate to have been able to get some of these 'high end' knives...right time, right place. The "ION FUSION" 119 is a 2002 model back when Buck was testing their ION technology. Not many of them made. That one was an ebay find last August 2019.

Wow, LJ, you're been holding out on us!!! What a sweet lineup!!!

[Madmarco]

Everyone's been saying "WOW" Ken, so I'll say so too, "WOW"! You have some absolutely gorgeous knives, but your LE Scimitar really grabs me, what a beautiful bowie knife! Very nice collection! If you have more, PLEASE show us! Really like the displays too!

[KLJ77]

Thanks, John, Mark. I appreciate the comments. The wooden display I've been working on for several weeks. Just something I threw together fiddling around. I do enjoy some minor woodworking every now and then, but I'm no expert cabinet maker.

[Madmarco]

I thought they were store bought Ken, but knowing you made them yourself makes them that much more special! You have some fine talents my friend!

Thanks, John. I'm working on some other designs for photo taking...those plastic swivel leg thingies don't seem to work too well for me.

[Montanaman]

Spyderco Mules, S110V and Maxamet, Redwood lace and Camatillo(Mexican Kingwood)

[KLJ77]

Kris...those two are very nice looking and compliment each other well. That Camatillo is gorgeous.

Kris...those two are very nice looking and compliment each other well. That Camatillo is gorgeous.

Thanks LJ, these are my wifes and daughters, both have custom sheaths also. My youngest turned 2 yesterday and I will have one made for her. Spyderco has not made them since 2017, but they are about to come out with a couple, one being in Spy27, so hopefully I can nab one and have it finished in nice wood. I have a knifemaker friend who does them and is a wood worker with excellent taste in wood.

[toomanyknives]

Here are a few of mine. I have a couple more that I don't have pictures of yet..

[1967redrider]

Those are sweet!

[jmh58]

KOOL!!!

Great group.

[KLJ77]

Great assortment of knives, TMK. That top one in the middle is a really nice looking knife.

[knife7knut]

Picked this one up today at one of my favorite antique shops. Cambridge Cutlery Work Sheffield England.Seven inch clip point tapered tang blade with the original sheath.Stag handles with no cracks.Down side is some moron(with apologies to all morons)decided he knew how to sharpen a knife with a grinder. He didn't! Luckily the damage wasn't too severe and the grind marks seem to be coming out for the most part with some 220 grit wet-or-dry sand paper lubricated with some Marvel Mystery Oil.Price seemed decent;he was asking eighty-five and I got it for seventy.

[steve99f]

Great looking knife K7K! Shame about the poor sharpening but it looks like its cleaning up well.

[WillyCamaro]

Awesome fixed blades you fellers are showing, and I completely agree, that Cambridge cleaned up awesomely.
