WOW, Dennis, some colorful knives there!:thumbup:

You'd have an awefully hard time loosing that eggs and hot sause one in the woods. Or anywhere for that matter. The copper snake is a nice blend of color as well.

:thumbup::thumbup:
 
That's one dazzling display of old-timey *bling!* you have there, Dennis. :thumbup:
 
I like the looks of some of the patterns. How does acrylic hold to everyday use? Does it scratch or crack?
 
Cool.:thumbup: I've always been partial to the Tortoise Shell.:) Very nice and very colorful.

Some of the acrylic types such as Percrylic supposedly contain moisture and are subject to shrinkage and cracking. Orange Crush is one. I don't have the details but Mike Latham (knife swapper) at Collector Knives has the details I think.
 
Very nice collection. I like the St. Paddy's Day Trapper, if I've got that right (Top row, 2nd from right). I have a couple acrylics you don't, hope it's okay to show them off.

willgoy i will shoot the pics now & post later. JohnnyR i thought on the watersnake awhile , trouble with site photos is you wonder what you're getting. i wo'nt send a knife back just because it was'nt what i thought. got a dark green mdl 23 in 440c that looked like a rubber truck tire painted green . bone jigging was so bad i thought it had been rehandled by a wineo. i could'nt send it back because it had no defect except being ugly as a wart on a blondes nose.made a test knife out of it, maybe i can trade it to my brother for mudder use.[knife used to dig mud out of your boots]. all in all my great easterns are truly art forms.

No way Dennis. You should know we never get tired of knife pics around here. I especially like that copper melt lockback. GEC really does a nice job with their acrylics. If it's not going to be yeller, man made scales should be interesting and attractive and they've definitely accomplished that.
 
I like the acrylics, it gives you the color of celluloid with out the worry.

Dead Skunk... That cracked me up :D
 
I love the dead skunk pattern concept also. Thought I'd get away from the knife on the picnic table shot. The dead skunk in my photo is really a clone of my dog's chest fur.

To quote member Redrummd, "WOW!"

That is a lot of color!
