(ancient thread I know, but this is on topic and I figure it is better to keep everything in one place)
Visiting family in Australia, and saw this in the display at the local RSL, it is a fairly modest edition to a display filled with medals, exotic military regalia, weapons, etc from all the different wars, but I thought it must have some small story to tell:

 
Very interesting to see that one, and an impressive collection all round from the look of it :thumbup:

Safe travels and enjoy your trip :thumbup:
 
thanks guys, the whole wall of the club is filled with memorabilia from veteran's and their relatives.
Interesting to see how many knifemakers are actually in Australia.
 
I have several traditional Spyderco's, if that counts. :) :) :)
I went to the Adelaide knife show two years ago, and was very impressed with the quality. Didn't buy anything, but purely for budgetary reasons. There was a bowie with magnificent engraving on the blade. The bloke who made it told me it was 40 hours worth and I could believe it.
