First Post - my collection

[RetiredGuns]

I am new to the forum but not quite new to knives. I have been collecting mostly pocket knives since 1969 at 8 years old. I have knives that range from the 20's to present and many that my Granddad gave me over the years. I am also a 20 year Marine retired. I have had a few Tactical knives mostly fixed blade Gerbers, but sold them off for some damn reason. I now find myself wanting to resurrect my hobby and might add a couple autos for fun. I'm looking for a decent EDC 2-2.5." side opener. Here is a pic of my knives minus a couple of KA-Bars and the tiny Schrade auto in my pocket.

Some little gems in there :thumbup:

Who made the large fillet knife? The design looks very cool...simple and practical.

It's a Japanese knife I picked up oddly enough in Japan! I was stationed there from 94-97. It has filleted many a fish!
