Well collecting is one thing -- if i were to do it again i would TRY to "specialize" in one maker or two and maybe one design or two and maybe one type of scale material or two -- and on and on it can go. You can always try different combinations of characteristics as time goes on. I would certainly love to have some early Cattaraugus and KaBar jacks right now! Everyone is mentioning some great makers in their posts. One thing i would say that hasn't already been said much, is size. I prefer the large size of any maker as a working knife. If the handle is too small you can really cramp your style! Thanks for provoking all the responses. ::tu:: ::handshake::

Good looking knkves Dogg. But that model 60 takes the cake. I'm a big model 60 fan. Fantastic guns.
