dwindling Mistresses

Cobalt said:
no, because there were simply too many for one pic and my pics typically suck. I did take pics in sections, but if I had dupes they never came out for pics and I had many dupes.. My goal at one time was to reach 50 SHBM's, and I have owned a lot more than that in all told, but the most SHBM's I have ever had at one time was last year at about 29(I thought it was 23, but I forgot that I had 6 at another location). And that includes the one I lost in the Chesapeake. I never really had a huge collection of BM's, I think the most BM's total was last year and it was probably in the 60-70 range.

:eek: WOOF!!! :eek:
60 to 70 BMs is not a huge mistress collection??? :confused: :eek:
Dayum... and I thought I had it bad. :p

I know having to let so many go had to hurt bro! :o


But... you still have a great collection there!!! :thumbup:
I see plenty that turn me green with envy. :o
Glad to hear you're keepin' the rest.

You are still the Battle Mistress King in my book!:thumbup:

Where is my SHBM :grumpy: I need one too ya know ;)
 
I've done the same thing to my collection bro....had to sell off alot of material that I would have loved to keep. Some of it I waited a long time for, others were dups that I felt were silly to keep. But the one's I've kept are keepers and they all mean something to me.

Looks like from the pictures you can say the same thing!:thumbup:

Hell...got to do what you got to do.

No Regrets!!!:cool:

actually, the ones that turn you green with envy are probably a lot like the ones that turn me green with envy that you have :D you know, that grass is always greener thing....:D I think we tend to do that with women too don't we

Ban, you keep on selling your SHBM's. I got you a really good one last time and you got rid of it.....Maybe you and SHBM's were never meant to be.:D

Solstice, no regrets pretty much covers it.
 
I know it sucks to sell things like that but aren't the ones you cared enough to keep the ones that are really special to you? I am a huge fan or the SHBM's and the BME's but so far am stuck making do with a DFLE(which really is not that bad).

I notice that you don't like the lines on the new FBM's either.
 
Just think of them as gold bars. Some times you buy low and sell high. Sometimes you just break even, but at least you have them to sell them (or get out and stare at them).
 
Cobalt,

As I look back on my long life I don't regret a single mistress gone by. I'm just glad that I had the chance to enjoy so many.

Looks to me like you kept the choiciest ones...minus the user you just sold me. That's one of the two I would NEVER part with :D a definite favorite!
 
the fact that you had about, approximately, around 33 mistresses to sell/trade/give, makes me want to puke.



just a little.



:D
 
Cobalt, I noticed that you don't have a single FBM CG.

Since you're not selling any more...

everyone thanks for the words. Jamie do you see the one I got from you? The second one from the left in the second picture. It is indeed a FACTORY fully sharpened 1 of 300 clip SHBM, but it is not a 1 of 300, more of a regular run knife with a sharpened clip per owner request. I talked to "the man" at blade and brought it with me and he saw it and remembered when he did it. In any case, it came from the factory that way.

You bet I did, brother! :D

It made me smile. :) I'm glad it still finds favor with you ... :thumbup:

BTW, my wife (HomeSeller) also noticed that.
 
I'm sorry you had to sell so many but I'm still envious of what you have. ;)

Congrats on some fine BM's and thanks for posting the pics

:D:D
 
Very nice collection you still got there Cobalt. Love those straight handled Mistresses.

The BM brought me to Busse and will keep me here. Only had the chance to use a CGBM and a FFBM but I would love one of those straight handled babies.

Yup, I had to move one more and I hated selling it, but glad it went to someone who will treat her well.

Eric, you are only envious because mine are straight while yours all curve.:D

fret not, if I ever decide to sell it, you will be the first person I call.

I bet I could get you to BUY one instead of selling :D

LOL, maybe and maybe not. Right now, not. But in a few months if things get better maybe I'll be in a position to buy.
 
60-70 of the BM's is a staggering number for many of us. I'm sure they all went to fellow hogs, so that is good for the hog pen. Hope things change in your favour and you get on a buying bend again. :thumbup:
