These two arrived today…

I misspoke, I meant she can never have enough knives, of course.

Yah, I was just about to scold you too, Mark!
There is no such thing as "enough knives", enough for the time being maybe, but never never "enough, period"! lol!
It's funny we're discussing this right at this particular moment, cuz I just came from ebay where I had 2 knives in my cart, one of which was there because the seller had sent me a discounted offer, but when it was put in my cart it showed as the full price, and after struggling for awhile trying to figure out how to proceed to get the 2 knives, 1 with the discount and the other at full price in the same order so as to only pay the shipping once, I had time to think, and the thought that crossed my mind over and over was "you have enough knives", so I emptied my cart and came here.
If I had accepted the offer from the "Offer" page it would have showed as the discounted price, but then there was no way to add the other knife to the cart on the same order. Even if it had gone smoothly to that point, I still had to go through the "Request Total" procedure in order to have him drop one of the shipping's, and I'd had "enough" trouble already so i gave up.
It's funny, I don't seem to miss those 2 knives one little bit, strange, huh?

Well that’s much different from the way I shop. Once I get a knife in my sites, it almost becomes an obsession. My recent Hattori knife is an example. Just couldn’t stop thinking about it. There are some I bid on and think it’s no big deal if I don’t get it, but others make me keep on searching until I capture it. This usually happens with Japanese knives, Moki, Hattori, Mcusta’s and Imai knives. I guess it comes down to why am I buying this knife when I already have so many? My collection is made up of a lot of knives I obsess over. Trying to thin out the rest that I have and find that I can live without them.

[Madmarco]

Yep, I hear ya Mark.
The knives in question weren't particularly special and that's likely why I was able to give up on them so easily, had they been certain autos or even some manuals, I'm usually like a Wolverine trying to acquire them. I realized I already owned knives that are very similar to the 2 I wanted today, and I was simply trying to add something slightly newer, plus I was bored as all get out!
Not good reasons to buy more knives, besides, I knew that as soon as I hit that "Complete Your Purchase" button I'd spot something I like even more, but now I don't have the funds to buy it!
Speaking of Hattori's, I saw one recently at Arizona Custom Knives, and it was a utility knife but looks very much like the models you already have yet different, current asking price, US$250. JFYI!

That's nice, Jamie.
Old as the dickens and still in great shape.
Good catch, bud!

Yes old my mother in law said she thinks she saw one similar to it in the 1700’s

It’s an auto, about as rare as hens teeth.

Thanks Buddy!

Oh it will be a regular for sure! I love it! No wonder Q & Jerry have such nice collections of these. They truely are a great pattern.

Can somebody please tell me, this one has 1/2 stops, do they all (6207) come with this feature?
Thanks!

I can't tell you if thay ALL have half-stops but I think the majority have half-stops (per a hasty test of about 2% of my pile). As Elmer Fudd would say "Be vewry vewry carefull" because they are as addictive as the Camillus 72, if not more so.

The black knife is the March 2023 Buck 722. It features S45V steel, aluminum bolsters, and a pocket clip, all coated in black Cerakote. The Buck logo and spine spacer are bright green.

The March be 2023 BOTM comes in at 3.2 oz, about half the 6.35 oz of the BOTM above with the copper scales.

A long string of hits here. Every one is excellent!
