Comfort Knives!

[GSPTOPDOG]

Very sweetold bones!

Thanks a lot doglegg & CxIII

These Queens are bringing me some much-needed comfort today

[Madmarco]

Perhaps this has something to do with you talking about visiting up here?[/b] :

Marco, ... it seems to me you need some major help "re-organizing" your vast knife collection.... so, if I headed off to the GWN, to meet up with you, ... we could organize some items (Al Mars, Schatt and Morgans, Robesons etc...etc... ) right into the U-Haul trailer I will be bringing with me. ....

I think that is a solid plan for getting you back onto track

You can't possibly think that all my knives will fit into that teeny-weeny U-Haul, can you? Better think about bringing their biggest truck, and even then it's a stretch!
Be prepared, son, that's my motto!

M&M, I was just counting on getting the BEST of your collection... not necessarily ALL of your collection.... ....

What I'm wondering, Dog, is why would you want ANY of my knives when you already own pieces like the last 2 you posted with their warm brown bones keeping you comfortable in your desert habitat?
Unless the knives are just an excuse for you to come up here to visit me, or, depending on what our governments do in the near future, live here?
You have some serious contemplating to do over all these new developments, my friend, so choose wisely!

P.S. - What did you do to remove the bold type?

.... hmmmm M&M, Sounds like you are saying "you can't touch dis' " when it comes to handing your knives over to me ....

This is where my accumulation is stored. These are knives that I bought with the intention of admiring for a while, then finding new homes for in exchange for hard currency. Events have overtaken this plan, my store has been idle for a while. The accumulating has only slowed, not stopped.

95% of these knives are for sale, just not listed in my store. Yet. I hope to get around to it soon, it's been nagging at me that I haven't had the time (and ambition) to get it done. It is nice to admire them in the meantime though

New to the store will be kitchen cutlery. I've been accumulating "inventory" I particularly enjoy kitchen knives made by or for pocket knife makers. I have things from Pal, Cattaraugus, Case, Boker, Robeson and Imperial.

I like the top picture, that is a great way to store and still be able to see your knives ... I too started accumulating kitchen cutlery... I was finding it everywhere on the used market. Buying it was no problem.... the only problem was when it came to sell it ... Selling on-line was a no-go.

The knife blocks made a set to heavy and bulky to sell with the block and ship through the mail. Then I tried to sell some at a yard sale. I put out 7 or 8 blacks of knives, only to be offered $2 or $3 for the entire block of knives. As I recall I sold one set of knives in the knife block, the entire sale (the sale lasted 3 weeks) for almost what I paid for it...

You just need some of your aapk panache in your salesmanship game dogg

I have considered the math on some of them though, you're right. The whole block is a tough sell. A booth at an antique or resell store might be in my future. The whole time and ambition thing might be in the way of that too though, who knows

Not at all, Dog, go back and re-read the whole line and it should make sense as to what I was saying.
I think you're getting topics mixed-up, M.C. Hammer and giving you my knives, different topics.

I like your displays, Zach, organizing my knives properly has been an issue with me. I've tried a couple of things with varying degrees of success, and am currently storing them in 25 of the exact same plastic boxes from Etsy you posted, I did remove the separators though.

I commented in the KFOTD thread already, Dog, but that was before I knew your new knife is an auto, here's my comment now that I know,
Lucky dog!

[doglegg]

Pure Comfort.....

Indeed!

Marco... I don't what kind of lights you are using to illuminate your boxes (possibly mine in the future ) .... ... ... but it's freaking me out!!!

A booth at an antique or resell store might be the answer in your case. I know several people that make a living doing that. One advantage is that you can make more room for more knives buy getting that other stuff out of the house and into the booth

... Here in my town, it is too expensive for me to sell there just to get rid of some stuff/junk. The antique malls here charge at least $250 a month for a small space (5'x5') and then they take 10% of your sale and keep it. And they charge 4% for using a credit card The

This thing is sick by the way. I'm not really into autos (sorry Marco ) but I like this one. I have a KC from 1871, I love that the logo on the stamp is the same.
