Here's a couple of pics of my MOP swinguard. It's #14 of 25. Who has the other 24?

By the way - it is an absolutely stunning knife - and I have had other requests for them that I wish I could fulfill.

Not as beautiful as that pearl model but here are a few other variations;

Those are some sweet looking swingers philco. How many of each did they make and how many different handle materials were there all together? I know they claim to have made just 25 MOP knives for a SFO. The fit and finish is amazing. I remember talking my knife out of a Guy's personal collection by buying about 5 other knives from him. At the time I was going all in with Canal Street, Queen and Schatt & Morgan but they just couldn't keep it going especially with the Queen line up.

I wish I knew how many of each variation and how many variations of each pattern Canal Street has produced. Hopefully someone with the inside track on all that info will put it together and make it avaialable for us Canal Street collectors. It would sure enhance the collectablilty of Canal Street cutlery IMO. Perhaps it could be compiled covering the first eight years of production (2005-2012), then suplemented with an annual update thereafter...........

MAYBE someone will start a Canal Street Collectors Club someday too.

I always thought that Canal Street would establish itself as a premium cutlery company. They started out doing everything right. I have a first year commemorative set that is pretty cool. I'll try to get some pics up in the morning.

Phil I should be able to get that info for you, pretty sure they still have those numbers in the "master" binder

May take a while though. I'll start with those swing guards

I think your mossy oak and giraffe bone are among the rarer ones.

Thanks Eric. I'd greatly appreciate any info you can share.

Don't thank me yet Phil, I forgot all about it! DOH! I'll try to look it up tomorrow before I forget again
