This is about 99% of my current collection, I know there are a lot of Paul type knives but 6 out of the 10 are one of a kinds. I also have some Cold Steels (Spartan & Master Hunter), an SOG Field Pup, 2 KaBar Boot knives. But these pictured, I actually carry and use (except for the fixed blades).

My wife's grandfather has that same bowie on the right. I could shave arm hair with it.
 
Nice western bowie. Ive got one thats sort of a project knife, found it stuck in the ground of the place im renting lol. Need to add handles to it.
 
Looks like you pretty much have it covered!

Thanks for sharing.

I love these knives and appreciate other's exuberance for edged tools/weapons.
I am discreetly paying off a BM Gold class 750-101, the wife wouldn't approve if she knew the cost of it.
 
Bdt,

I think that's a fine collection you have there. Those Paul knives are beautiful.

I also spy a Benchmade Bone Collector--great minds think alike I guess.:thumbup:

Best,

I love those old Bowies, I found one rusted out and refinished then gave it to my father in law, now every time we go visit he pull it out with the Crocodile Dundee line....


Your collection is really nice, nothing small about it!

Yes sir, Green/Black Textured G10 Bone Collector (First production #191/500).

The Bone collector was my 1st BM, then I bought the Warn Mini Tanto, then the Impel pushbutton Auto. I am covertly paying off a BM Gold class 750-101.
I think I have the butterfly bug.
 
The Gold Class 710 is a beautiful knife for sure. If you haven't been bitten by the butterfly bug now, you will be when you get that one in your hands.

I had to settle for the 710-01 M390 LE version, but I've got my eye on a 710-101 as well...great minds DO think alike!;)

The Bone Collector is one of my all-time favorite Benchmades. Anyone bored enough to read a post of mine will find me using just about any old flimsy excuse--like now--to blather on about it.

I'm pretty sure Cutter likes 'em too.

Best,

Heekma

The 710 looks very nice indeed, but I am paying off a Gold Class 750-101:
Damasteel USA Infinity pattern blade.
Titanium monolock handle with contoured and hand blended black carbon fiber inlays.
Titanium backspacer anodized bronze.
DLC finished hardware and clip.
Limited run of 200 pieces, I am getting #8.

After I get this home, I am definitely looking into one of those 710's
 
Those Paul Defenders are very cool. I’m interested in knowing how well the locking mech has worked on your Paul knives. I bought a basic model a few months after they were first released. After a day of playing with it the blades became real lose and would actually rattle in the open position. I returned the knife and got another one – same thing happened. I ended up returning it and moving on to a different purchase. I loved the knife design, but I just couldn’t deal with the slop in the lock up. Maybe there was an issue early on? Just curious to know if you’ve had better luck.
BTW – very nice collection.
