Gus, speechless. Wow. I see a lot of Tony Bose Collaboration knives in your collection. You sure like quality. Well done.

WOW!! WOW and WOW!
I feel like I just finished flipping through a coffee table edition of The Best Knives Of The Last Two Decades

Great show indeed!

Here ya go Madmarco! This is the 6th time I've tried to reply to your question.

GusSharp, wow. Bravo, you're blowing us away. Incredible stash.

[Madmarco]

Here ya go Madmarco! This is the 6th time I've tried to reply to your question.

Thanks very much for showing me your knife, bud, it looks just like I thought it would, and I like it.
I prefer straight clean lines on a knife, I guess a stiletto/icepick look is what I'm saying, I've never much cared for all the embellishments that take away from that look, and your knife certainly lives up to that.
Why did it take 6 times for you to reply, I hope it wasn't something I did?
Thank you again!

Not sure exactly why. Might be my phone;been having some issues with it lately(shuts off & turns back on for no apparent reason). Might have something to do with the flying lessons it's occasionally subjected to.

Looks great Gus. I think you'll find you already know a few of guys around here.

Thanks, a bad battery perhaps?
At least we know it wasn't something I did!

Mind boggling , knife7knut, and amazing, awesome, incredible, beautiful, fascinating, etc...

Your collection(s) constitute nothing short of a knife museum.

Would I be wrong in guessing you've only shown a fraction of your entire collection so far in this thread and there's still a lot more you could show?

Thanks for the kind words.
Yes; I have a FEW more stashed away here & there.
Most are in a 24 drawer typographer's cabinet & bout 2 dozen miscellaneous boxes.

Knifenut, now that’s incredible. Nice collection.

[GusSharp68]

Mail delivered a few more today, a Schrade Walden 861 and a Schrade 61OT, two bigger brothers to my 825 shown with them.

Knifenut, now that’s incredible. Nice collection.

Thanks for the kind words & welcome to the forum with your fantastic assemblage of knives!

Shameless commercialism plug:
For those who might be interested, I host a Facebook page called, '' Rey Zhourej Knives '' that features primarily knives from my 70 year indiscriminate accumulation. All are welcome to join.

[Madmarco]

Like everyone else is saying, K7K, your accumulation is nothing short of spectacular!
I'd say we can be fairly certain about where all the MOP is, not to mention all the metal!
I hate addressing you as "K7K", can I assume your name is Rey, and if it is do you object if I call you that? Thx!

Bronze knives from Thailand. I bought these early in my collecting journey.

Interesting knives. I'm curious if you were in Thailand when you got them?

Those are beautifully detailed knives Gtr! Very nice! I have never seen Thai knives before.
Thank you for posting.

Though the knives are from Thailand, I have never been there. The 2 solid bronze and the 2 with wood inserts were acquired from Atlanta Cutlery. The “pearl“ and “water buffalo” were eBay finds.
