Hi Folks,
I thought I would share what I have acquired over the past 6 months or so. I hope you all dont mind. I took a few pictures the other day. Here are a few.

Desert Sand Blur. The black and tan look so good together.

Why did they use a silver pocket clip on these? It would look so much better with a black one. Once I get a black clip I can sawp I will.

Yes it is a blem. But works perfectly.

Olive Drab Scallion. It came with a silver clip, but I swapped one from a all black Scallion. The silver one looks good on the all black as well.

Thanks for letting me share.
 
Nice looking knives.

I wish you could share with me how your pictures came out so clear.
It doesn't look like sunlight.

Well I could try and tell you what I do. First off I did two years of study at New York Institute of Photography. But that was eions ago. Long before digital. I have a Canon DSLR which does really well. And for technique, these where shot outside on my back deck. In the shade. To get the strongest light for the fastest shutter speed, they are about 4 inches from where the sun is hitting the deck. Don't shoot in direct sun. There is to much contrast for camera sensors to handle. And the sun will wash out the colors and they will not look as good. If you can shoot early morning or late evening, then you get better color. My lenses have image stabulization. If yours don't, or if it does not work very well, use a tripod. I always shoot in raw and proccess them on my pc with the Canon software. There are better out there, but it works for me. If you dont know what raw is, I can explain it to you off forum. Don't want to do more off topic than I am already.
 
Nice collection, you are off to a great start! If you ask Kershaw for a blur clip they will send you one free. The blur clips are the same as the leek but they are black.

Nice! I think I've picked up seven or eight Kershaws since the first of the year too. I really like that speed bump. But I'm looking for the all black G10 Speed Bump for my collection. Fingers crossed for a decent price.
 
Amazing Speedbump is right, every time I use mine I wonder why I don't carry it more often. I guess if Kershaw didn't make so many other great knives I would.
 
Ya there are pictures.

Nice collection, I have all of those too(except I sold my scallions) and edc them. I like the od and ds versions a lot. Great looking knives, the bumps are very useful, love the utility the blade shape offers but the single position carry and clip limit the pocket time it gets.
 
Thanks all for the nice words. One thing though. This is not all the Kershaws I have. Just the ones I have gotten in the past 6 months or so. Not that it really matters. Just thought I would clear up the confussion. If you all want to see what else I have, I can post them as well. Just ask and you will receive. LOL Not that I have a lot more. But there is more in my collection.
