All About Pocket Knives

Next year will mark the 10th anniversary of Canal Street Cutlery Company. That got me to thinking about those of us who collect their knives.........

I took inventory today of my Canal Street collection. Before I reveal how many I counted, I'd like to know about some of you other Canal Street collectors. How many have you rounded up so far?

If you have pictures let's see em.

Why do I have this mental picture of Philco standing there with one of those old-school handheld "clicker" counters, counting his knives and worrying that the counter only goes up to 9999?

I see him holding up some fingers, looking down towards his feet.

Here's mine***

Here's my one and lonely.

I don't even have to take off my shoes for my one and only. I bought it during my "one of everything" phase.

Well you have me beat by one Jerry ::bummed::

Here are mine

Can't say I collect them, but the two I own are fine knives.

I've got five.

Hawbaker Special JerryD's favorite, "Carry the Football" AAPK Pocket knife of the Year
2009 2011 2012

2 here.....both are AAPK Club knives.

I collect their American Chestnut handles. I have eleven knives in that material. The AAPK 2012 FLE in American Elk makes for an even dozen.

This Swell Center is an example.

You guys have some nicen's. Keep em coming.

I'll start by showing my Oxblood Burl Collection....

I like that Hawbaker. I've considered those several times. The "football" is just a fun pattern.

Yeh, it is, but it sure is a massive hunk of steel

Here's my football knives. One of the oddest things I've seen produced by any cutlery company. I'm banking on them becoming quite rare and valuable someday.......maybe..........if I live long enough......

Ya know Phil, I think we really need to see a "Dribble the Basketball" knife from CSC

T.J. why don't you draw up a sketch and we'll see what ole Wally has to say about the idea.

Phil, I'm becoming concerned about your mental health.

Now Jerry you're starting to sound just like my wife.

LoL,

There will be no "Dribble the Basketball" Knife.

Phil - those oxwood burl knives are amazing!

Now see what you've gone and done Michael. You've went and put ole T.J. in a blue funk. Poor old feller. What's he got to look forward to now?

Thanks Michael. Here are my EDC Canal Streets. The congress is in the starting lineup and the two pinches are my number one and number two backups.

Well, there goes all my hope for rounding out my Canal Street Sports Series.
